I actually agree with you on that as well, watching claude take over so many tedious "oh this thing broke, I have to google how that works, re-learn its config format, fix the thing, then forget about it again" kinds of tasks does at the same time reveal a lot of thought processes that i no longer have to engage in.
then again I dont see how it's too different from just a simple move into middle management where you manage programmers but dont do as much of the coding yourself. with Claude I'm finding myself taking on much bigger tasks and orchestrating a lot more technologies to do things, so I am learning about things i would not have if i didnt have the LLM to assist me through it.
