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.

@cwebber slop machines might let you move 2 times faster but it’s at the cost of 5x the technical debt and rapid cognitive decline. any code that comes out of an LLM is a toy/liability at best
