There needs to be a "what stage of grief are you in" question.

• Denial

• Anger

• Bargaining

• Depression

• Acceptance

Here is what I see(and common thought patterns)

• Denial (models will never be able to replace the majority of important work)

• Anger (angry at data centers, energy use, IP theft)

• Bargaining (people thinking that their personalized agentic dev setup or self-hosting is gonna somehow leave them with meaningful work long-term)

• Depression (people who are being honest about what it will mean to day-to-day lives of many workers in the industry over the next decade)

• Acceptance (people who are focused on the problems that get worse as AI gets better - social disruption, x-risk, government/corporate control)
