It's only getting worse too. The entire US economy is being propped up by AI and crypto. It's like the sub-prime mortgage craze of the early 2000s. Lots of money going into a system that will never recoup the investment. Either they have to find a way to extract value, or the bottom's gonna fall out. Just wait for the too big to fail AI and tech bailouts.

I could only get a quarter way through this article before feeling true exsistential dread. Website URL seems legit.
Awww, that's fun. People think we're going to have an election in 2028.
That's a wild take. That's like saying you're uncomfortable in the sauna so you moved to the desert.
Every company wants AI even though they have no idea how it helps their business or their company.
My grocery store app does not need AI when they can't even get search right.
Some things are riskier than others. The point is that you understand the risk and make informed choices.
And many, many more rely on their jobs not only for income, but also for access to healthcare. Something seems wrong here.
Can't have the uppity peasants upending the status-quo, can we?
It's like saying an embassy is not US soil. Sure, politically, that might be true, but for all non-political purposes, it very much is within the US.
Nobody asked for this! FFS, can megacorps stop shoving AI into everything. Lucky Charms and scissors will have AI soon enough.
A tragic death does not redeem an evil life.

Here's my take: Like google, stackoverflow, and so on, AI is yet another tool in your toolbox. It can't replace humans yet, and in fact it's a ways off from that if you ask me. Not that it won't eventually be able to do it, but it can't yet. You said yourself, there are still elements that the AI just can't do yet.
I like that I can say "hey AI, here's what I need" and have it generate what I would consider a good framework to start from. It helps me eliminate the boring, time consuming stuff that I could easily do on my own. Your value comes in that other 20% now. The stuff that requires higher level understanding.
A big problem is that AI is creating technical debt in the form of deep understanding and expertise. You have the benefit of years of experience. You are the guru now.
