No worries. I don't post to get magic internet karma. I'm a thirty year veteran and hate to see kids quitting or ruining their career development because "ai bad". I'm also worried about brain fog but it's impossible to deny what opus 5.5 and even sonnet can accomplish when guided correctly. I built a state of the art Bevy like ECS in a week. I hand curated the external api but left all the implementation to ai. I did ensure it was doing performance and regression tests on everything. I would not be able to build that in a year. Wasm kernels, multi threading, web gpu execution. Just learning each area in detail would take months consecutively.
The world has changed.
