AI code is here and it's here to stay. Who hasn't seen the productivity gains? We're talking CEOs of companies doing 37,000 lines of code every single day. I mean, what else is there to our lives as developers? If we can put out that much code, why would we do anything else? This totally isn't going to come back to bite our asses, right? It's not like we're going to lose all our skills as we rely on the slot machine more and more and as a result, the slot machine becomes a slot machine and nothing ever works how it's supposed to. This definitely isn't currently happening and people definitely aren't starting to notice, right? Oh. Agent of coding is a trap. This sounds like it's going to be a very, very fun article. I have a lot of thoughts here as you guys can guess. On one hand, I love coding. I love building things. I care about the nitty-gritty of syntax. I've built entire stacks around my specific tech preferences that have went so viral that they helped build my entire career on platforms like this. On the other hand, I very much enjoy these AI coding tools so much so that they fundamentally changed how I think about back and the things that I build and I've never spent less time actually writing code. In fact, if I open up my code editor right now, I'm not even looking at code in it. I'm looking at a prompt file and then a bunch of CSVs for the data for all of the runs that I'm currently doing with agents. I'm barely looking at code anymore. There are things I'm doing more of which is cool. Like I've never gotten so good at get in my life. I've never used SSH and remote boxes as much as I do now. I'm trying out all sorts of new things. I am learning all sorts of new technologies, but I also feel some of my skills atrophy and I find myself when something doesn't work, just rolling the slots again and again hoping that this time might be the one where I get the output I'm looking for. Pulling that lever costs a lot of money. You never know what you're going to get, but at the very least you know what you're going to get in our sponsor break is a really cool company like this one.
