It's demotivating to think that:

- LLMs aren't good at producing original / novel work
- You still need experts to advance that stuff
- It will always be slower to move without using LLMs
- Once an innovation is done though, an innovation can always be scooped up by the LLM users
- "Bro why are you doing all this manually, I just vibe coded that in a weekend"

Will it always be this way? It's depressing in the meanwhile, at least.

I just hope the bubble bursts while it's still practical to resist.
Once the unlimited investment dries up, most or all of the cloud LLM services will disappear, but if that happens after complete industry capture we are 100% boned. We'll end up with unlimited government subsidy like we have with brown energy.
