This is the part that saddens me the most. Watching that spark of curiosity and intrigue dwindle from the hearts and minds of nerds like you and me. I noticed it start to happen to me back in November when I truly began to understand where we were headed. I think I occupy a sweet spot now with my current skill set - AI can’t solve the problems I work on - but it can really help empower my workflow in small doses. Nevertheless, it’s a moving target with lots of uncertainty, and the atrophy of my skill and passion is palpable even in the past 6 months.
