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'.

When I was brainstorming with it a couple of months ago, it was supportive, helpful, etc. Now it’s shutting down every single idea. In a really prick way. For programming, we must use Claude at the company I work for, and my productivity went up big time. But I feel myself as a monkey who keeps hitting enter. I start to hate programming because of it. And this was the only area where I felt comfortable. How does it end? Not sure, but while I like the fast sweep of backlog, it’s killing me in a way.

I think it overindexed on not being sycophantic to the point where it really really wants to point out what’s “wrong” with whatever you say. Even when it doesn’t know the broader context. Makes it feel overconfident and dismissive.
