I ask myself the same question.
I'm not seeing the apps, SaaS, and other tools I use getting better, with either more features or fewer bugs.
Whatever is being shipped, as an end user, I'm just not seeing it.

cto and ceo are now feeling insane pressure to show how they are using ai but its not evident in output. So now they've resorted to blabbering publicly about prs, lines of code ect to save face. And ofcourse ppl giving them voice and platform have their own agendas that prevent them from asking "so what exactly have you shipped stripe from million pr/day".
Its baffling to see these comments on hacknernews though. I guess you have to prove that you are not a luddite by making "ai forward" predictions and show that you "get it"
I think a lot of SWE roles are really bullshit jobs (1) and these have been particularly susceptible to getting sniped with AI tools.
