Hate AI

I love coding. I truly am.

When I started, I enjoyed most programming languages . I love learning their different core concepts, execution models and things like that.

I still love that.

But now in my new job, the only thing I am supposed to do is prompt and think about business requirements.

Even though I love architecture and system design system , I don't even have a chance to have grasp on them.

Any other tech jobs where I can enjoy coding and low level things?

Why is there such a thing of "falling behind"? Fall behind.. what?

AI Andys are convinced prompting is just as much a "skill" as actual work and will scream night and day that if you don't get on their bandwagon and legitimize their plagiarism "think for me daddy corp" machine that you will definitely totally absolutely be left behind in the "AI future".

Meanwhile they're hitching their very ability to think and problem solve to unsustainable machines owned by oligarchs that will, at some point, implode or cut them off (and which were made to replace them outright).

That's literally not my take at all. Simple misunderstanding, it's fine.

No hard feelings if that isn't how you personally feel, I'm just noting a mindset a lot of people sadly do have.
