I am not denying that AI is better for productivity. Can't even say I am anti AI

It is just made my work unfun for me, that's it. I always loved problem solving, writing code, thinking about architecture. Now all of this is delegated to LLM's. Only things left is providing documentation and evaluate solutions. Evaluation part is present only because documentation/harness isn't perfect

Your are not building software together with Claude, you are only a context provider. You may think "ah, but my expertise is irreplaceable", that's false.

Another side effect is that code doesn't have any value. You can code new search engine from scratch and people will think "huh, I could prompt that too in a weekend"

I guess not many people liked writing code like I did (codeforces red btw, but this is also dead now), so effect of AI is net positive. But I give up. I need 2 more years to earn enough for the rest of my life, and I will never work in coding related field again

The irony is I have unlimited tokens, because my work is to create and deploy SOTA inference solutions for LLM's in one very well known provider. I've used all types of LLM's for a large range of problems for a long time, so this is not a hysterical post after discovering Claude for the first time
