AI has me so burned out. Just heard about someone framing an AI photo of their pet and I'm so over all of this. I went into software because I liked it. I love the art and the puzzles. I did not go into software because I'm trying to rise and grind or have any delusions about my ability to retire or own a home. If AI outcompetes me, I'll just wait tables or something, I'm not trying to die like John Henry did, nor am I sticking around if all that remain of my job is meetings and prompting.
