It is fun to imagine what we could have built on those old machines with these new coding agents! But it is kind of hollow isn't it.

It's the difference between building a table yourself and telling someone else to build a table for you.

If you've never done anything for yourself, usually with your own hands, you don't understand the pleasure and satisfaction that comes from doing it.

And since "AI" isn't human, it can't know that feeling, either.
