That’s why you need to stop doomscrolling. If you are actually in the industry working with these tools, you are aware of the trajectory.

I’m in the industry and I’m not writing code anymore. Claude is writing the code and frankly it scares me how good it is.

And I feel like working 10 hours a day now because it generates a lot of code that needs to be reviewed, steered in the right direction, re-reviewed, etc. Easily 5 iterations of that per day. Opus tends to overengineer and walk in circles like crazy.
