Anecdotally the “power users” of AI are the ones who have succumbed to AI psychosis and write blog posts about orchestrating 30 agents to review PRs when one would’ve done just fine.

The actual power users have an API contract and don’t give a shit about whatever subscription shenanigans Claude Max is pulling today

Whatever makes you feel better about yourself, I guess. My account history on this topic is pretty easily searchable, but I guess it's easier to make driveby comments like this than be informed.

Generalisations and angry language but I almost agree with the underlying message.

New tools, turbulent methods of execution. There's definitely something here in the way of how coding will be done in future but this is still bleeding edge and many people will get nicked.
