Oh you're preaching to the choir. I think we are entering a punctuated equilibrium here w/r to the future of SW engineering. And the people who have the free time to go on to podcasts and insist AI coding agents can't do anything useful rather than learning their abilities and their limitations and especially how to wield them are going to go through some things. If you really want to trigger these sorts, ask them why they delegate code generation to compilers and interpreters without understanding each and every ISA at the instruction level. To that end, I am devoid of compassion after having gone through similar nonsense w/r to GPUs 20 years ago. Times change, people don't.
