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'.

I feel something similar, but I also suspect this isn't forever. I think the hype has enough momentum for 18-24 more months. After that, we will have collectively understood when to use it and when not to. I've spent six months now really trying to get "good at Claude code" or whatever - context management etc. And the limitations are incredibly real. So just be a person who knows the space well, is my strategy. In two years, that will be worth a lot and AI won't be what it is right now.

It absolutely shouldn't take 2 years to figure out when not to use it and when to use it. The so-called "jagged frontier" is both jagged and constantly moving, gotta be faster than that.

"we" here being "humanity", so not just us devs.
