I know there is a large force on HN that want to deny the value of tokens and I know it’s anecdotal but the writing is on the wall. If it’s not valuable to your workflow today it will be soon. I already have tests being written, automated hooks into bugs where an initial PR gets generated with a potential fix. It’s far from perfect but junior engineers are far less productive.

there is an even larger force on HN that financially _needs_ the value of tokens to be inflated (so much so that bots have overwhelmed the site)

That’s not me. I am simply an engineer who gets a ton of value out of these tools.

Really? Do you think there are more bots and employees of AI stakeholder companies than there are vanilla engineers on the site?

by far. at this point there are very few tech companies without exposure to AI
