Well I was just arguing that people generally are using AI irresponsibly, but if you want to get specific...
You say ban the users, but realistically how are they determining that? The only way to reliably check if something is AI is human intuition. There's no tool to do that, it's a real problem
So effectively, they made it an offense to submit AI slop. Because if you just use AI properly as a resource, no one would be able to tell
So what are you upset about?
They did basically what you suggested, they just did it by making a rule so that they can have a reason to reject slop without spending too much time justifying the rejection
I don't think you understand what doing code reviews is like.
So someone submits terrible code. You don't get to just say "this is bad code" and reject it wholesale, you have to explain in exhaustive detail what the problems are. Doing otherwise leads to really toxic environments. It's killed countless projects
That's why you write rules. You don't have to argue if they need tests or not, you tap the sign and reject it without actually reviewing it if it doesn't meet the requirement
Same thing here. You open up vibe coded nonsense so you tap the sign and reject it without bothering to review it. Do the same thing with "bad code" as a reason and it starts insane drama.
People are really sensitive about their code, and there's a whole methodology around how to do without ending up in a screaming match
