There's always a grain of truth in everything, but the recent article by the Redis guy (sorry for the lack of name) resonated more with me. It's correct that the load in other areas is increasing also because these tools are not there yet when it comes to for lack of a better word "good taste". I work with someone who hasn't written a line of code in a year and it shows and I'm about tired dealing with the slop. But also there's a bunch of things at work that you either did a million times already, aren't really challenging problems just annoying problems hard to solve because of all the cruft, a lot of boring manual work etc. and for this it's just an amazing help to the point I am more relaxed at work than I was previously. And when it does something that is not quite there, I can either fix it manually or tell it to fix it and it usually "gets it". Of course it it ultimately replaces me I will not be relaxed but that's a different topic.

Another little thing that resonated was a tweet that said "some will use it to learn everything and some so that they don't have to learn anything ". Of course it's not really a hard truth. It's questionable how much you can learn without really getting your hands dirty. But I do think people looking at it as a tool that helps then and/or makes them better will profit more than people looking to cut corners.
