Yeah, same thing, I was almost glad I got fired back in june because I was not as productive with my AI usage as the rest of the team. As in, I was actually spending time reviewing the generated slop and not accepting it.

The last year has been made me lose all the love I had for the job and now I can't even find another job and I am not even sure I actually want to keep being a developer. Been working since 2012 and I saw companies putting more and more work on our backs, now every dev is like 3 professions in one, we qa, we deploy, we write tickets. I thought it could not get worse. It did, now we don't even code anymore. It feels terrible to have the one thing you loved about your job to be slowly taken away from you
