It's also not an either/or, You can love both. I still love coding for the challenge, but I also love the productivity benefits AI brings me when producing things that benefit people.

At the end of the day I do not put my skills on a pedestal either, I can learn from AI the same way I learn from reading open source code.

You are absolutely right! Sorry, I couldn't resist that one (thanks Claude).

I agree with you completely.

I started at a new company in February and was able to use AI to get fully on boarded 3 months faster than their typical onboarding cycle.

I use it to learn new things all the time and to enhance my existing decades of experience. Very humbling when it shows you how much you don't know.
