Yes, I think many people are starting to feel this exact tension.

The key, I believe, is to mentally reframe the AI: it's not the driver, it's your assistant — a helper, a debugger, maybe even a silent teacher. But you're still the architect. You're still the creator.

The problem begins when we forget that. When we let the AI lead the design, the structure, the reasoning. That’s when we start losing ownership — and understanding.

Ironically, AI was built to help us — not to replace our thinking. But without solid fundamentals, it's easy to let it take over. And then we're just directing prompts, not building things we truly understand.

we wont be deciding how to do things anymore, but what to do, case in point: Mr. La Forge run lvl 3 diagnostics on the warp drive. LaForge clicks a button on his iPad

at some point even this will go away and AI will decide what we want to do based on analyzing our brain through neural-link

at some point in far future even this will go away as parts of our brain will be continually and eventually completely replaced by synthetic AI brains

Did you use an LLM to edit your comment? I am not casting aspersions, just trying to figure out if I am intuiting it correctly or not.

Haha, nope — just me. I guess that's my inner ex-humanities student showing through.

Sometimes I write in bursts, get carried away with the rhythm, and then end up editing like crazy to make it all make sense.

Em-dashes are just my way of thinking out loud — but with structure.

It's the em-dashes — they were rare before 2021 and now they're in every paragraph.
