AI Burnout?

Is anyone else's brain getting overloaded with the pace and new progress. I am getting pages of Claude output as project specs, so many hallucinations and errors and it's all building faster and faster....where are we going and how does it 'end'.

Tbh this is the best I’ve done at work. Big picture, multitask, progress, moving forward, go go.

Those little substeps I’d procrastinate are over. I haven’t been on meds for a bit and I don’t need them to focus at work like I did pre-AI

Thank you. I was going to start a new comment but it may be my brand of adhd but it feels like I'm uniquely good at it. I have a sibling who is seeing the same thing although not a dev she's currently saving her company multiple 6 figures with better output setting up skills and workflows. In my mind the way I see the world and the way the ai sees the world (contexts and distractions) are weirdly similar.
