Writing Code Is Fun

I became a software engineer because writing code is fun. Thinking through hard problems, designing elegant solutions, seeing the things you’ve built working for the first time… these moments are all deeply satisfying, so why in the world would I ever surrender them to AI?

@davidcelis @otfrom I look at this from a different angle. AI helps me solve bigger or different problems that I couldn't have solved on my own, or solve them more efficiently - it's not doing the fun parts, it's doing the boring drudgery parts.

That said I respect everyone's choices and preferences in this space!
