    Honestly im proud of the problems I’m able to solve today now that I can use AI to do it so quickly.

    Even when I stop and manually check all the work the AI has done, it’s still much faster and I’m having to rely on my knowledge and experience to do so. When I’m vibe coding I’m relying on that same knowledge and experience to architect the solution rather than deliver it.

    Ive seen the other side- the colleagues who all of a sudden think theyre engineers and are unknowingly exposing critical commercial data to our competitors. That side is scary…and gives me hope that my role while changing, is far from dead.

    Also I have hobbies - i only work to pay for them. If “the man” wants to pay me to spend tokens…fine by me. I’ll be here to clean it up if it all goes wrong.

      All good, and I respect your perspective!

      I know you were like “flame me!” Lol, But hope I wasn’t sounding too judgy. I think it’s hard not to have strong opinions on the topic either way these days. (And I’m already prone to soapboxing haha.)

      Wishing you the best out there. :)
