Entryism. Promote a "rational adaptation" scheme, reject "slop", embrace "gems", try to use it as a "helping tool".
The reality is much grimmer: Some vibe coders lie about them only using it as a tool, them "reading the output" is just getting it compiled and maybe pass some (AI generated) tests, and overly trust the genAI over classical search engines. People using the tools show some degree of AI psychosis, such as trying to "prompt" flesh and blood people ("I've read on a blog that..." is often used to make chatbots agree with you, and is also used towards humans by those who talk to chatbots a bit too much).
