I'm a 40-year software dev. Looks like we're having two different arguments. I approached the "no AI" rule as a prohibition against using AI to pass a software dev competency test, not to write a cover letter. I haven't used AI myself in coding, but several of my colleagues - also with decades experience - use it routinely, and according to them it's very helpful. Since a software dev for an AI company would presumably be writing code, is it a stretch to assume AI coding tools would be used in that work? Incidentally, although I've never worked on an AI project I've been reading about AI and expert systems since the late 1980s, but that doesn't seem relevant to the discussion. Anyway, there's no need for condescension or insults - they never really make a point except about the speaker.
