I suppose the realities of teamwork can be seen as "toxic" by some individuals.
I suppose I understand why devs who don’t know how to say no, or work with stakeholders, are terrified of AI. What value do you have, at this point, when you’re unwilling to or incapable of pushing back on bad ideas?
You'd have to define a "bad idea" much more precisely and in the context of that particular business.

Developers often do push back and warn against ideas that have too many compromises, but cannot outright say no just because of that. There are too many other people involved.

You seem to think that any one person/group has/wants/should have full control when deemed necessary. That doesn't make sense unless either the success criteria are lacking (you call the shots alone and probably miss a ton of opportunities), or the requirements are so constrained that all the work is just optimizing the implementation (someone else already called the shots without you).

If your work is either of those situations it means the business plan sucks. AI is the least of your worries.
