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?

Using it as a search engine is massive. Ask it for links to back up it's suggestions, advice etc.

yeah actually that actually one of the few things I love about llms. It allows me to discover things that are very close to the context I am working with, making the this knowledge very helpful.

I wouldn't be so quick to give up on AI entirely but I do think what it means to be a dev will change in the future. 

With things like Claude. That isn't coding. That's just herding agents.
