Handling skepticism & hard questions

Make the call in this situation: "A panelist says, 'Honestly, AI just writes bad code and juniors will lean on it as a crutch.' What's the strongest opening move?" Explain what supports it.

Step 1 of 3

The hard questions are where the panel watches your judgment, not your polish. Cursor's culture punishes spin and rewards honesty, so the winning posture on conflict, failure and AI-skepticism is the same: own the hard thing plainly, then show what you learned or how you'd reason through it.
