  I think most of us haven't, but those who do are vocal about it. (Those who haven't aren't all that vocal, excluding weirdos like me.) Only 62% of respondents to the 2024 Stack Overflow Developer Survey are “currently [using] AI tools in [their] development process” (up from 44% last year), and non-programmers seem to use them far less.
