I think I see where this article is going. I don't ever want to be known for being good at programming Next.js. I don't ever want to look at the <div> salad that "good" React demands and feel proud of it. In my current role I'm perfectly happy writing poor code for these painful abstractions of node.

I don't even want to know where Next leaves off and React begins, or even where React leaves off and TypeScript begins, or even if I'm using TypeScript or JavaScript. Let AIs handle the miasma that is front-end development. I'll paste it in there, test it, make it as succinct as possible and get it off my plate so I can do something more useful.

This compared to the time I used AI to help with my first Ruby project, where it pointed me to some cool libraries, pushed me to look up amazing functionalities that my PHP-corrupted brain couldn't even conceive of, etc.

AI can offload the burden of producing more of something it’s seen a lot of. Including miasma.

AI is much less likely to help you engineer your way out of miasma.

When you automate something, you get more of it. Except attention, you get less of that.
