100%. Too many people equate LLM assisted programming with vibe coding some slop. Which is just a weird thing to do at this point.

That's exactly why one would expect him to not embrace it. LLM usage is anti-correlated with either of those things.

True, but I think there are quite a few very pragmatic people in here, and yet you see the they don't exactly go around singing praises.
