I think this is a false dichotomy. If you're passionate about your craft, you will make a higher quality product. The real division is between those who measure the success of a project in:
- $ profit/man-hour, features shipped/man-hour, etc.
- ms response time, GB/s throughput, bugs/LoC committed, etc.
You can fall in the latter camp and still use AI, but it's a lot more targeted. And yes, you can always cut corners and ship software faster, but it's not going to be higher quality by any objective metric.
