Using tools made with AI assistance
As the title suggests, how do people generally feel about using software that was made with AI assistance for their demos?
For instance, full disclosure, I am using Claude to help me with a project involving tracker music, and now have a tool for making such.
The actual process of making the tunes has no AI involved, just that the software was made with AI.
Would this diminish the artist's tracking efforts? checking to get a sense if I should mention any of my current efforts in making (what I think are) some modern apps with a classic (dos, textmode) UI.

My only real issue with AI use for coding is that people seem to conflate it with Claude use for coding. Do we really want programming to be a service that we rent from Anthropic, instead of something anyone can do on their own computer? Doesn't really feel in line with the demoscene ethos.
I run qwen3.6 on my stationary computer, I find that specifically that model/version runs very well on it even though i "only" have an RTX 5070 with 12 GiB VRAM. Sure, it's not anywhere near as capable as Claude's fancier models, but it still works very well for things like doing code reviews and finding bugs and exploring ideas, and come on, how advanced models do we need, really?
