The interesting part here is how it differs for you and me. I work on quite complex systems most of the time, and I write things much faster myself. AI needs so much hand holding that it's equivalent to trying to sprint while carrying a backpack filled with bricks. And also, it changes the way I think, which is really scary to me. I very quickly stop thinking about what a good solution to a problem is, and instead start thinking about how to convince AI to come up with a good solution to a problem. I basically become a manipulator, not a creator. A Steve to a Wozniak. If I wanted that I'd have gone into sales or management instead.

I also wonder what is the end of this relying-on-AI cycle? You need good problem solving skills to be able to use AI to make somewhat working solutions. The more you depend on AI, the worse become your problem solving skills. And then what. Since you're no longer capturing knowledge into your own brain, your moat as a problem solver is also slowly disappearing, no? And once the job market figures out you actually can't do anything outside of an AI, or the tech has moved on, and what you knew before you started using AI has become irrelevant, who will even hire you anymore?

I see this a lot with juniors entering the job market nowadays, unable to problem solve (many don't even know how to copy and paste text), and sure enough, they get fired a lot.
