Starting to see posts and videos from dev/UX people along the lines of "AI works really well but for completely unrelated reasons I now hate my job, am feeling lost and burned out, and am planning to leave the industry"
Too bad nobody tried to warn them and got repeatedly ignored or dismissed /s
🤷♂️

Because people are already being annoying about this: it’s obviously not notable when somebody who dislikes using LLM tools and worries about the impact of “AI” complains and ponders leaving the industry. It is notable when people who think the tools are useful and have no moral objection to them also express the desire to leave industry. Obviously not as common but also obviously more notable.
