"And Linux and C? You don't have to rely on Linux to code C or C#. This is like saying: You need Linux to code in Python. You simply don't."

Yes, exactly. Which is why it would be absolutely asinine (and evil!) if there were people going around bullying creators for using Windows or "the wrong programming language". So, please stop going around bullying creators here, just because they use tools that you personally dislike. Look up statistics of AI use, the vast, vast majority of students are using some sort of AI in school and university. Of course you can be a Luddite till you die and hate against all people for using new tech that you protest for some weird reason, but what is the point of that? Just let people live as they want.

I'm fairly certain they meant that as an example, since that's one of the languages you mentioned, and that with that second statement they were referring to phenomena like the cults behind Linux and C that often believe anything else to be inferior. So neither of those are an indication of inexperience.

That aside, please be aware that it's very patronizing to explain to them the—in your opinion—correct way to get into the trade based on your seemingly unfounded assumption that they are trying to learn. They might be a senior programmer with little time or too many ideas, so they use AI to get it done faster. They might only use this as a prototype, too, which is strongly encouraged by this website to begin with. They might even replace AI code in a full release version, maybe; who knows?
