It's to be expected that HN would have a contrarian take but I find it ironic that the amount of criticism toward technological innovation in an industry that is rooted fundamentally in technological innovation is so common.

The stakes are higher than when it comes to any previous controversial technology/bikeshed. This is not "react bad", but rather "push for trusting a black box with engineering bad".

The saying is "don't get high on your own supply" for a reason.

That saying applies to one thing: drugs. It's not something you can extrapolate across industries.

What is a programming language in the first place if not a programer satiating their own need for a better tool?

I hear that cocaine makes you feel very successful despite the fact you're actually sitting in a back room with white powder on your nose doing nothing meaningful whatsoever. This is also what AI does, but not what programming languages do (except possibly Rust for some reason).
