It's not that wild. I like building things. I like programming too, but less than building things.

To me, fighting with an LLM doesn't feel like building things, it feels like having my teeth pulled.

I am still using LLMs just to ask questions and never giving them the keyboard so I haven’t quite experienced this yet. It has not made me a 10x dev but at times it has made me a 2x dev, and that’s quite enough for me.

It’s like jacking off, once in a while won’t hurt and may even be beneficial. But if you do it constantly you’re gonna have a problem.
