I fully disagree with golinux on this. I think that if you are using the AI as a tool and are acting as a software designer or architect and keeping a schematic with blueprints of your software, intelligent questions for the AI, and with a specific design, and also keeping records of what you are doing then there is nothing wrong with using AI to make coding more efficient. I think alot of people will come up with niche clique ideologies to be an elitist and will turn everything to its extreme and try to say if it is bad for AI to be in control of all of our sotware then AI must be bad in all situations and circumstances and for any purpose. I disagree. I think this is just being an extremist and truly a software fascist as well as an elitist. There is nobody stopping people from deciding not to use AI. It isn't being forced upon you necessarily. There is nobody saying that using AI means letting it do everything and not having an intelligent designer in control of the AI. I think when we start making everything into its extreme polarity like that then we fall victim to the ideologies of the brown shirts in Germany way back when. People need to think for themselves and use common sense, and stop letting other people tell you how to think. It does not take a rocket scientist to know that using AI makes coding more efficient and faster and it also does not take a rocket scientist to know that you cannot let AI be in control when coding nor can you use AI and code without being the intelligent designer who keeps records, backup copies, and uses a schematic with intelligent prompts and questions. Everything must be intelligently thought out first and put on paper before you start using AI to code otherwise it is going to do things you do not want it to do. Also I would not use cloud based AI if I could help it. Claude and Grok are not so bad but localized is always better because you can control it and tell it what to do. I would say Enoch is a good way to go. Be the programmer and the designer and not the one just using someone else's service.

I would say that being completely against using a tool out of "fear" that it will takeover is kind of the same thing people did with Socialism and the brown shirts way back when. When extremism becomes stupidity we have a problem. What do I mean by extremism ? That is basically using the ideology that we do not want AI automatically doing everything for us so that means even using it as a tool for research or as a way to code more efficiently or even using AI to cut the time of programming and find more efficient ways of syntax or formatting is bad ( even if you design the software yourself and even if you use a syllabus and you keep records so that you can work on your own code ). This isn't an intelligent mode of thought. This is elitism masked as "AI is bad" but in reality it is just an excuse to be an elitist and it gets into the exact clique mentality that drove me away from Debian and all of the other woke distros. It is the exact idea that makes these wokie socialists take something and turn it to its extreme and invent a problem so that they can conveniently come up with a solution that nobody needs or wants. THAT is the problem. The problem isn't people using AI as a tool. It is AI automatically making every decision for us and being the designer and architect as well. If you have a brain and can create things yourself and are acting as an architect by creating your syllabus and scehmatic first that isn't vibe coding. Vibe coding is just letting the AI do everything and just saying "yeah that feels right so I will go with that" and not double checking nor being able to double check the code it is giving you. There is a huge difference. One option cannot understand or read the code and the AI is in control, the other option is directing the AI but stopping the AI at each pass to analyze the code being given and creating records and a schematic in case it is to be worked on in the future or improved upon. People can come up with all of the excuses in the world to be an elitist but they are still just excuses and people see right through it.
