I wonder if I'll ever give a damn about AI LLM and the like. Maybe that's the generational barrier. I find that topic so uninteresting, like cars or kitchen apparatuses, or home electronics of the 70s. I see the technology as energy burning or rather wasting and not beneficial to human evolution and survival, the contrary.

It's not because of the unknown, it will also replace me and remove the joy of building something on my own. But I bet in 20 30 years it will be like DJing back in the 90s and DJing now. DJing back then was manual work and art, required skill. DJing now is mostly effortless and could even be automated, with AI too. It's more of a performance show than mixing skill and art.

Creating something new will be a matter of just defining what you'd like your result to be (as already is the case very often) and refining the steps. Instead of writing code, you'll be writing or speaking with an AI, which will then generate code.

When I started coding at the age of 11, that was the dream. But I still can't find the motivation to deal with AI.

I'm 49 now, soon 50.
