yup. the things i disliked most about programming were hyped up bullshit and losing autonomy.

These existed before but the culture surrounding AI delivered a double dose of both.

I have no problems with LLMs themselves or even how they are used but it has developed its own religion filled with dogma, faith based reasoning and priests which is utterly toxic.

The tools are shoved down our throats (thanks to the priesthood, AI use is now a job performance criteria) and when they fail we are not met with curiosity and a desire to understand but with hostility and gaslighting.
