Idk about artists, but programmers you're gonna hire in 2026 are almost all gonna Use AI. Only programmers I know that don't use AI are millennial indie developers or interns at corpos who actually wanna learn stuff.

I myself was against AI, but this is what I saw with my own eyes. If it's a corporation, it's 99℅ using generative AI for coding. Still am, but this is the reality.

    As a programmer myself I haven't found that to be my experience. For every programmer I know that embraces generative AI tools, I know at least 1 or 2 who are critical of them, be it for ethical reasons or technical reasons. I'm not seeing a huge increase in productivity or quality patches either... But then again I'm probably in that camp of anti-corporate FOSS-loving indie millennials...

    Regardless... whether it's common practice or not doesn't change the point that piracy is a whole lot easier to morally justify when developers and publishers are creating things an in unethical and exploitative way.

    Publishers lose whatever ethical high ground they may have had to wring their hands about piracy when they are leveraging other people's stolen labor.
