> I started to code more in Python around 6 months ago. Why? Because of AI, obviously. It’s clear (to me) that big money opportunities are all over AI these days.

I find this depressing. Not only are LLMs covertly reducing our ability to think and make decisions, they’re now also making people voluntarily conform to some lower common denominator.

It’s like humanity decided to stagnate at this one point in time (and what a bad choice of point it was) and stop exploring other directions. Only what the LLM vomits is valid.





Eh, I just wrote a chrome extension for the first time through AI. If it automates the boring stuff for us, I'm more okay with this than not.

humanity tried to save time and allocate it to other pursuits, don't worry
