      If making art is the process of getting something inspired in your head into the physical world, then it would make one an artist. AI would be a tool to achieve that.

      Many people still don’t consider digital artists to be artists because they use tools that make it easier than physical art.

      I’m not arguing that using AI makes me a software developer. I’m saying that as a software developer, I seek to use the best tools for the job, just like any other job.

          I never said anything about artists. I don’t think AI has much use in artistic endeavors. I’m talking about a software development job.

              There’s no push back from the developers at my company or the developers that I interact with. We have been embracing it for the use cases that AI is good at. There is lots of manual effort that us software developers don’t like doing that AI automates easily. I believe the mass layoffs that companies are doing are using AI as a convenient excuse in uncertain economic conditions.
