    If you were an average tailor in 1700s, you would have to transition into operating sewing machines in a sweatshop. Same for coders, time to transition into the intellectual sweatshop, this one at least seems to be more comfortable.

    Coutures are still hand made by tailors, a lot of it hand sewn without a machine. It’s the same with LLMs, GPT Astra max thinking and it still mostly looks and feels like Slop. That slop is probably fine for 90% of software products but not for 10% of remaining high quality software. Decide which part you think you can / want to join.
