Nobody Seems To Use AI In Software Development. I’m Astonished

Sometimes I give junior devs a helping hand on Twitter (or X, if you sign up for the Musk madness).
“I never expected the following situation to happen”
The Situation
The Tweet contained a softball question about how to do some formatting in the FE and asked whether they should use a singleton or other technique.

“I’m shocked that nobody else either does this or have picked up on me that I do it”
The surprise
I know already that people ask softball questions on X (he’s got me too) to get engagement.
“Which is YOUR favorite programming language? 👇Tell me below👇”
Yet people are sucking up low-quality coding questions and giving similarly poor coding answers. It strikes me that it hasn’t occurred…
