I'm sick of the fact that every techno-nerd (including me) can create a new level of abstraction, the integrity of which will be proven with foam at the mouth by other people.

Skill is an ability created through practice and habit. Text files have nothing to do with it - they're not skills.

Maybe from the client's point of view, although it's more likely a Tamagotchi. But from the server side, it’s more like a whole hippodrome where you need to support horse racing 24/7

AI doesn't do anything fundamentally new; you search for information the same way you used to through Google. The difference is that when you Googled, you understand that responsibility for the end result lies with you. Now, "users" shift responsibility to the "machine," even though they're essentially writing the program's configuration in their own language. Once you take responsibility for what your LLM writes, you'll no longer be so eager to pursue mythical "productivity."

It absolves from responsibility because "the tool was wrong". No wonder it is being hyped.
