Developer Asks: Should We Credit Claude for Code We 'Built'?
A developer posted an Ask HN thread questioning why programmers say "I built it" when AI assistants like Claude often write the code. The post argues that phrases like "I asked Claude to build this" or "Claude built it for me" would be more accurate. The question taps into a growing debate about authorship and credit as AI coding tools become standard in developer workflows. No consensus emerged, but the thread highlights how deeply AI has embedded itself in software creation.
