> I consider myself a better than average programmer and I have no problem admitting that using Claude Code has dramatically improved the quality and speed of my output.

Genuine question but is it really your output anymore?

There are projects where the output is all what matters for example (Some script/basic project-prototyping/idea-validation) and then there are outputs where you want to feel the ownership "my code, my software"

AI has definitely tainted the latter and depressed people into not releasing source code anymore because they feel like AI will just train on it/ AI issues and even read the Sam and matplotlib on that whole controversy. So in my opinion, AI has definitely tainted some pretty valuable priceless things.
