The dot com boom is an apt analogy: the internet took off, we understood it had potential, but the innovation didn't all come in the first wave. It took time for the internet to bake, and then we saw another boom with the advent of mobile phones, higher bandwidth, and more compute per user.

It is still simply too early to tell exactly what the new steady state is, but I can tell you that where we're at _today_ is already a massive paradigm shift from what my day-to-day looked like 3 years ago, at least as a SWE.

There will be lots of things thrown at the wall and the things that stick will have a big impact.

other than constantly feeling gaslit about the quality of these tools, I can tell you where we are _today_ is basically the same in my day to day as it was three years ago.

oh except, sometimes someone tells me I could use the bot to generate a thing, and it doesn't work, and I waste some time, and then do it manually.
