By far the most interesting part of this post is this stuff:

> It’s more that I was watching HudZah navigate his laptop with an AI fluency that felt alarming to me. He was using his computer in a much, much different way than I’d seen someone use their computer before, and it made me feel old and alarmed by the number of new tools at our disposal and how HudZah intuitively knew how to tame them.

I often feel like a complete newb with AI tools, but I don't really know how to level up. I'd love to watch someone like this, just to see what's possible.

It’s hyperbole. The way we use to dumpster dive through Google, SO, etc, now we’re just adding LLMs into the mix. Same shit, different browser tab.

I dont think its hyperbole. Im young and I have friends my age that also use these AI tools in ways that seem borderline nauseating to me. A friend of mine built a whole polished project page for his app with cursor, and when I watched him for a bit I was surprised how fast he interacted with cursor, claude and chatgpt. Of course it wasnt perfect and I cringe at the idea of creating a project with tons of AI generated files I dont understand, but still, I felt like my grandma when she watches me use my phone or laptop.

Take it from someone’s who’s been around for a while - app templating, boilerplate generators, etc have been around since antiquity. It’s just an iteration on that. This isn’t Neo plugged into the matrix, don’t mistake evolution with revolution.
