I have mostly experience with a large app that I have been building lately. I use VSC with Claude. I have some background in coding but I do not do it for a living. As a tool, AI works best when there is a plan to follow and a master document for it to update to record progress. Starting from a proof of concept first and then expanding from there provides clarity. Sometimes I have used another AI to create a refined method to be implemented by another AI.

What I do not like about AI coding: the intellectual and memory challenges fade away. There is no more brainwork that I have liked about coding. Copy-pasting and especially auto-coding become boring quite fast, and I have no deep knowledge of the code. I do not have problems with it to think about: solutions to feel accomplished for. Those only come when I catch an AI doing something stupid.

I could not have written the app to this extent this fast without the help of AIs, but while I am happy about the app I feel unfulfilled.

There is a danger that while pushing AI into everything hoping for continuous growth, the actual growth as a human being is reversed, unless we are vigilant.

Certain Caribbean fruits contain a neurotoxin annonacin which has a causal connection to a form of Parkinson and related diseases. A two decade long study was the latest to conclude that this July.

I agree it's as idiotic to drink a herbal tea based on a toxic plant as it is to allow toxins in a drinking water.

There is undeniable logic in that removing all humans solves all human problems.

When machines can sustain a machine economy and population, human mortality and existence will have an interesting mirror. At that point, the machine intelligence will likely already exist in its own unfathomable reality.

It is more than likely that many humans will also want to become machines. Some may even want to become vomit machines. The cycle is complete.
