Aint making you worse knowing how it functions behind the scenes, what a low effort troll-bite title.

I am a better engineer by actually knowing the tool that your GUI is abstracting. The CLI and GUIs both have their place

While I do not doubt AI's ability to write decent commit messages, most of the stuff in article has been already in all IDE's I've ever used for years and didn't need AI.

If one wants to figure out in which branch they now are - just look at the goddamn screen. Built-in git integration in, for example, VS Code already makes most actions done in few clicks.
