This is kind of gross. Make the claim or not, don't do this pseudo-sealioning thing. Moreover, engage with the actual content (or you could just not engage at all!), not this shallowest possible dismissal.
eh sometimes you don't need any thorough dismissal. for all the "AI does make you productive" headlines, there's bound to be a few that goes the opposite way. Its just statistics, and these headlines get upvoted because of emotional reasons.
There's no way AI is going away, nor any way companies are going to use AI even less than they are today. Hell, even Linus Torvalds is using AI. At this point, there's no need for a serious rebuttal to these arguments.
