> you work in a language that is underrepresented in models meaning off the shelf tools don't work well

That's exactly what happens, and why I think the whole hype is a joke. I have tried all the models and tools though, it's always an annoying mess.

> tools can solve nearly every single leet code problem faster than you

That would be useful if I was paid to "leet code" or solve Christmas games. This is not a good rebutal though but it made me smile.

> The kind of work I'd give to a Jr/Mid

Good, but I don't want to know what happens in 20 years when there are no more juniors to feed the AI and work on becoming seniors. I will be retired by then and I'll enjoy writing my own open-source stuff.
