You've already lost me, because I view programming as an art form. I would no more use AI to generate code than I would use it to paint my canvas.

I think the rest of the article is informative. It made me want to try some things. But it's written from the perspective of a CEO thinking all his developers are just salt miners; miners go into the cave and code comes out.

I think that's actually what my hangup is. It's the old adage of programmers simply "copying and pasting from stack overflow" but taken to the extreme. It's the reduction of my art into mindless labor.

That's cause there's an element of mindless labour to it. It's easier to spot that so it gets more focus.

If you find that theres an element of mindless labor to coding then you're probably doing it wrong.

Get a key logger and track the repeated keys you hit. Arrow keys, hjkl or w/em just the keys that take you to the place you need to be.

While your at it you can tell me about your favorite click.
