> . Some developers never fully embrace automation, especially if they are reliant on certain tools versus original solution discovery.

can you expand on that for clarity ?




Some developers never really learn to actually program. This is largely due to chasing fashions. In the past this has been around things like Java Spring or JavaScript React. Instead of learning to write original software they get really good at using a tool. Now the new fashion is expecting AI to do it for them. When people build their careers around this it’s all they can do and never dig deeper. This works well for seeking employment, but doesn’t allow for practical skills growth.


They don't embrace AI is how I read that.
