The industry does not care what engineers think because engineers have no power at all. We will not be able to hold any line against a management class that has been assured that AI tooling doubles engineer productivity and have zero ability to judge that claim, because they've never built anything and run into the exact problems that AI tools cause; A lack of understanding. They don't even know what they don't know.
If you wanted software engineers to be able to hold any sort of quality line against a few trillion dollars worth of AI investment, we needed to unionize or even form a guild twenty years ago.
