tl;dr - All this AI stuff is just Universal Paperclips[1]

I see a lot of comments about folks being worried about going soft, getting brain rot, or losing the fun part of coding.

As far as I'm concerned this is a bigger (albeit kinda flakey) self-driving tractor. Yeah I'd be bored if I just stuck to my one little cabbage patch I'd been tilling by hand. But my new cabbage patch is now a megafarm. Subjectively, same level of effort.
