I think I need to look into retraining. Software development as a discipline very much feels dead now. Everything generative tools touch is rotten, and they've absolutely infested the software world to the point where nothing feels worth dealing with any more. I don't even want to use software at all now that it's so provably rotten.

What could I retrain as? I don't know. I have vanishingly few actual skills outside of this field. Before this, I was studying film and Japanese mythology, which doesn't really feel any more employable. I guess I just have to continue working inside the rot until I figure it out.

A curse, in fact many, on all who use generative AI.
