Did you read the article? It makes valid points that your comment doesn't address. It isn't a brainless "AI is making us stupider" post.

Yes, but do search engines not have a bias towards existing technologies?

Yes but they are much more up-to-date. And they don't have the react issue he mentioned.

I think it may hold for mediocre programmers who brainlessly do what AI tells them. Good programmers will always look for better ways, and for them AI is a great way to explore time-tested ideas in addition to a fast tab-completer. It will certainly not drive them away from new ideas (or at least the arguments in this piece didn't convince me).
