A bit of a nostalgic read, I bet everyone remembers the first time they tried ChatGPT-4, and the conversations about it at gatherings/BBQs.

But I don't feel like it's gotten any better, if anything I feel like it's been "dumbed-down" a bit (possibly from added safeguards/censorship).

AI coding assistants (e.g. Co-Pilot) has made me a more productive developer, but only in the sense that I type less boiler plate (or ceremony code).

No, and no. Never tried it. Nobody in my circles does.

The AI hype bubble illustrated.

People who keep telling me I will be left behind keep not producing all this amazing, flawless, refined software that AI was supposed to build.
