I'm genuinely asking what are your input on that, and telling why I can't see a diff. What would a better AskHN would look like for you, happy to edit to increase the quality of the post.

I obviously see the rants of my own echo chamber, but the complaints about GenAI are mostly about copyright (as you said) but they also make it a moral stand. GameDev using GenAI are accused of being "lazy", of having no vision, etc... unquantifiable.

Your remark about aesthetic would map 1:1 to poor code quality. (LLM code quality can be pretty bad, depends on prompt like always).

"Stealing" is a word aften use to criticize genAI.

no it wouldn't, poor code quality would map to hands with 10 fingers on them, aesthetic maps more to if every code generated, no matter the language, looked like it was written by someone who knows all the technical specifications of the language and never makes a bug but because of their personal preference and comfort zone writes everything as though they were a Java expert and preferred writing code in a Java OO idiomatic manner.

The aesthetic complaints about AI art of any sort is it is boring and easily recognizable as AI, boring and easily recognizable coding styles are generally a benefit in code.
