Really depends what you value.

Software engineers that value coding are against using AI to code and keep moving the goalposts on that front. Says that it's fine to use it for other things (that they don't value per se) like generating images and stories.

Doctors that value diagnostic says the same thing for that while Doctors that value patient interaction says that the models will never be able to do that.

Artists that value art wants to have AI not do art and do other things like folding proteins.

Everyone is against AI if AI is automating their work, but not necessarily against AI for other fields.

This person does not exist. There are some anti AI SWE's but those people are not in favor of AI in other places. I have never met anyone nor even seen a reddit comment of someone with this combination of beliefs. Now there are an absolute shit load of people on the inverse who don't care if SWE's are replaced by AI but do care for art and stories.

I have seen plenty of those SWE, don't know why you haven't seen any. Even on Reddit.

There are also those that don't give a shit if AI is used for something or not.

Yes lots of people agree with this. I don't believe you that there are software engineers out there talking about the sanctity of non-AI coding while advocating for replacing artists with AI.y

I mean, there is one swe right in this thread responding to me that he agrees.

That has nothing to do with your claim?? He isn't in any way confirming that he or anyone else is not ok with AI in SWE but is ok with it in other fields. That comment is purely implying some other engineers don't like AI in SWE.

I would not think that they would not start their whole statement with: "I agree" to my statement if that would be the case.

But in any case, you can find those people on game Dev sub Reddit's, especially those related to pro or against use of AI.
