I've seen, read and heard a lot of mixed reactions about software engineers (ie. the ones who aren't building ML models and make purely deterministic software) giving their opinions on AI usage. Some say it speeds up their workflow as it frees up their time so that they can focus on the more creative and design-oriented tasks, some say it slows them down because they don't want to spend their time reviewing AI-generated code, and a lot of other views I can't really capture in one post, and I do acknowledge the discussion on this topic is not so black and white.
That being said, I'm sort of under the impression that ML Engineers are not strictly software engineers, even though there may be some degree of commonality between the both, and since that may be the case, I thought I'd hear it from the horse's mouth as to what the ML techies think about incorporating AI usage in their daily professional work, whether or not it's workplace mandate. What's it like?
