Yes, Claude has killed XKCD 1319:

Automation is now trivially easy. I think of another new way to speed up my workflow — e.g. a shell script for some annoying repetitive task — and Claude oneshots it. Productivity gains built from productivity gains.

- adregan 1y agoThe is not the xkcd I thought it would be. This is the xkcd that Claude code makes me think of: https://xkcd.com/1205/ https://xkcd.com/1205/ I don’t feel Claude code helps one iota with the issue in 1319. If anything, it has increased the prevalence of “ongoing development” as I auto mate more things and create more problems to solve. However, I have fixed up and added features to 10 year old scripts that I never considered worth the trade off to work on. It makes the cost of automation cheaper.
