The Man with No Brains

I actually enjoy setting up a new coding project from scratch - those first couple of hours where you go from nothing to something, even if it’s just poorly laid out HTML and CSS, or a bunch of console.log statements.

Recently though, I’ve found myself unable to approach any new task without AI’s help.

Like an addiction, it became a trap. I couldn’t break free from the cycle of constant stimulation and instant gratification these tools provided. Instead of being a useful helper, AI became the process itself - I stopped starting with code and using AI to work through ideas, and instead started with AI and used it to generate the implementation.
