I guess I hope that the good stuff keeps coming and the dross falls away. More signal, less noise.
On a small bright note, I've gotten AI to help me produce some of my best work over the last couple of months. It may enable sloppy behavior, but it doesn't require it. I have hope that serious work will win out in the end, and that sheer human effort is still the differentiator.
At least that's how I read it. :-) I'm learning that there's a place for the LLM but it's the sandpaper, not the chisel.
Like even the basic question of "hey did I already merge this branch?" becoming unknowable if you autosquash-on-merge is just nasty.
I've got a million ideas on what the "correct" fix for that problem might be, but imho it's a flaw deep in the heart of git that creates a massive amount of pain.
But I'll give it credit for being rock solid and blazing fast, as you say.
