I feel like I'm starting to have an allergic reaction to the AI writing style. I can no longer unsee it, albeit I can't exactly pinpoint what about the text triggers this guttal reaction.

It's absolutely disgusting and I feel almost offended that I am supposed to spend time reading something that the author clearly hasn't even spent time writing.

I am okay with using AI or software to proofread and improve a piece of writing but this one is clearly fully written by AI, as is evident with the short sentences and the awkward writing style -- no human actually writes or talks like that.

Because it's a machine pretending to have experiences. It uses abstract phrasing by default in a way that people don't. So the output feels uncanny. Starting to see this all over reddit comments too. I don't know what the point of not writing your own comments is, other than spam.

I hear you, its the same for me tbh, BUT I strongly stand behind the content written. Writing skills are degrading.

How does the disclaimer fit into this?

>> I recently told all my engineers to delete their IDEs. PyCharm, VS Code, Cursor. All of them.

I’m all in on AI assisted development but this is ridiculous.

There’s so many self evident reasons to need an IDE as a developer.

Presumably the unidentified author is selling something that benefits from such a stance.

At this point someone's low quality writing is more compelling than all these people who can't be bothered to express themselves. Like I could write this blog post in 10 seconds:

I realized recently that AI agents are so good that we don't need to read code anymore. I told my team to uninstall all their IDEs as an experiment. A few weeks later they agreed with me. Lanes is a tool that enables this new coding paradigm. I'd love it if you checked it out.

Easy.
