They’re destroying the only thing I like about my job - figuring problems out.

So, tackle other problems. You can now do things you couldn't even have contemplated before. You've been handed a near-godlike power, and all you can do is complain about it?

This seems to be a common narrative, but TBH I don't really see it. Where is all the amazing output from this godlike power? It certainly doesn't seem like tech is suddenly improving at a faster pace. If anything, it seems to be regressing in a lot of cases.

Agreed. Mostly, what has occurred is I now have to field a lot more PRs that weren't well thought out (let's be honest, there was no thought), and - my personal favorite - argue with an AI via a human, where they post an AI's opinion on what I said as a reply. I've started just asking them to post links to documentation validating their claims.

Or get laid off. That works too.
