How do you define your productivity? Are you astronomically richer and/or freer now that you're so much more productive?

Why, lines of code, of course! As to how those lines of code translate to customer value, well, I'm not quite sure what the code does. And in any case, I've been talking more to my fleet of agents than to customers these days. I'm sure the value will fall right out of this tree if I just shake harder, eh?
Infinite monkeys with typewriter theory, you’re onto something. Keep grinding (and paying for Claude, better multiple $200 subscriptions), king. I’m sure the success is around the corner, surely casino loses this time.
No, not yet astronomically richer. I'm working on it, but a part of the reason why I haven't yet broken all my bones from repeatedly diving into a pool of money is The Red Queen's Race. With how much easier it is to write code and realize your vision, coupled with how jaded we've all become, the bar is just much higher. But I'm pretty certain that if I had this sort of capability even just 3 years ago, and others didn't, I would have been like a Kryptonian under a yellow sun.
The bar is on the floor. Not that I can objectively prove it, but it is my strong belief software quality has gotten worse since LLMs started being mandated in enterprises, eg. Windows has began shipping critical issues in updates more often. The vibe motherships themselves certainly don't inspire confidence. ChatGPT for Desktop (which is simply the chat interface in an electron window) doesn't have tabs and yet in an hour of chatting was at the point where it was consuming 2.5gb of memory. In a single tab, remember, because providing tabs is an impossible feat that no human or robot could possibly think to provide -- who would possibly want to ask questions about two different subjects, anyways?

Don’t worry, they maintain feature parity between desktop and web. It routinely consumes 2GB in my browser for some reason.
So if the benefits haven’t accrued to you, it must have gone to your customers right?

And what exactly would’ve changed three years ago compared to now?
