I'm watching as AI afficianados generate code and place copyright licenses on them with some amusement. It's AI generated, so copyright does not apply, nor do your licenses. If you want to argue otherwise, then you have failed to realize that work-for-hire is only automatic for human employees, not AI. So if AI generated code ever does enjoy copyright protection, it's owned by Anthropic and friends, once again, not you.
I'm not using AI agents. I'm not worried about getting left behind. I'm keeping my skills sharp while AI users let theirs dull. My code still enjoys the force of copyright, while they sit precariously between no copyright or copyright they don't own.
> Far more worry about being expected to do more for the same pay (51%), getting trapped in an unsustainable pace (46%)
This is a feature, not a bug. Not for us (engineers), but for our bosses, ofc

Does that mean using IDE auto-completes renders your code property of VSCode, IntelliJ, etc.?
