I was locked into apple chips, amd chips and intel chips long ago. Everyone is already locked into one of these companies. The fact of reality is that the technology is so complex only for-profit centralized powers can really create these things. Linux and open source was a fluke and even then open source developers need closed source jobs to pay for their time doing open source. We are locked in and this is the future. Accept it or deny it one is delusional the other is reality. The world is transforming into vibe coding whether you like it or not. Accept reality. If you love programming, if you care for the craft. If programming is a form of artistry for you, if programming is your identity and status symbol. Then know that under current trends… all of that is going into the trash. Better rebuild a new identity quick. A lot of delusional excuse scaffolds people build around themselves to protect their identity is they just say “the hard part of software wasn’t really programming” which is kind of stupid because AI covers the hard part too.. in fact it covers it better then actual coding. Either way this excuse is more viable then “ai is useless slop”
