The most surreal thing about AI coding shit taking on is the revelation that so many people who do this thing that I love, seem to have no care for the craft at all. Even people who I would have pointed at, years ago, as those who clearly care. And I know it has always been Just A Job for many people, but holy shit, do you even care a little bit?
We humans are not merely bad at it, we have people who have been doing the work with no desire to be good at it in the first place.
If you don’t like programming, I invite you to do something else with your time instead of promoting the machine that lets you not do it. Some people actually like it, you jerks.
@pikhq I was talking to a friend who has gone fully claude pilled the other day; He has to get a new job to look after his family, so I'm sympathetic to his embrace of the technology - looks like the only way to get a job right now.
What scares me beyond the changing technology is that we don't own this thing; In the past I've always known I can just work harder than everyone else out there and prove myself... What happens when I can't afford the tools anymore, when it's only viable as a job?
