> Every developer is using LLM
Citation needed. In my circles, Senior engineer are not using them a lot, or in very specific use cases. My company is blocking LLMs use apart from a few pilots (which I am part of, and while claude code is cool, its effectiveness on a 10-year old distributed codebase is pretty low).
You can't make sweeping statements like this, software engineering is a large field.
And I use claude code for my personal projects, I think it's really cool. But the code quality is still not there.
Stack overflow published recently a survey in which something like 80% of developers were using AI and the rest “wants to soon”. By now I have trouble believing a competent developer is still convinced they shouldn’t use it at all , though a few ludites perhaps might hold on for a bit longer.
Stack overflow published a report about text editors and Emacs wasn’t part of the list. So I’m very sceptical about SO surveys.
I was also offended by that :D.
“Using AI” is a very broad term. Using AI to generate lurem ipsum is still “using AI”.

that goes both ways
