A CTO hiring new graduates at a larger company says they are generally unfamiliar with AI coding tools and have little hands-on use of them, so they do not fit the "AI-native" label.

The CTO attributes this to internships at traditional companies that also did not use these tools, leaving graduates more fluent in pre-AI software development methods. The account is the CTO's own observation as reported by Gergely Orosz on X; no broader hiring data is cited.
