I struggled with this at first too. But it just becomes another kind of joy. Think of it like jogging versus riding a motorcycle. Jogging is fun, people enjoy it, and they always will. But flying down a canyon road at 90MPH and racing through twists and turns is... way more fun. Once you've learned how to do it. But there's a gap there in which it stops being fun until you do.
That’s an interesting analogy but I do disagree with it.
I would say that programming without an AI is like riding a motorcycle. You’re in complete control and it’s down to your skill to get you we’re your going.
While using AI is like taking a train. You got to plan the route but you’re just along for the ride.
Which I think lines up to the article. If you want to get somewhere easily and fast, take a train. But that does take away the joy of the journey.
