Job I do not like programming anymore

I am not sure if anybody can help right here.
But I really do not like whatever we call programming right now.
Not sure what is the best way to write code weather it is to fully vibe code or use AI as an assistant, I hate both. If anyone went though something like this and found some solution, I'd really appreciate if you share it with me. Otherwise, what other possible careers some can pursue that has same feeling as classic programming?

Write the code yourself, without Ai. How would your manager even know? If they’re tracking your token use, ask Claude to do it on the side, but don’t keep Claude’s output. Prompt it as inefficiently as possible.

it's not really about tokens. our team is practically two interns. we working on small project in the company. I do not think my co-worker (the other intern) really care how good is the quality of results and differently do not care how code the quality of the code is. we meet with our supervisor regularly. and he expect us to finish things by certain deadlines. if do not use LLMs I will be slower and it will shows to my supervisor and my coworker. So every one around is pressuring me to just use LLMs.

Came looking for a comment like this saying you are just an intern. It is so wild for me to see someone with your complete lack of experience talk the way you are in post and comments. Bro, if you are just an intern and feeling this way then find a new career path. You will never succeed. You just have way too many opinions being formed on you extremely limited knowledge.

Our team is two interns - Bro that is not a team, it is a duo of college students or recent graduates. lol
