what would happen if they supplement the IT team using AI to show them how to build better sandboxes. Do you think it would be a conflict of interest for the AI?

we have a small black&white laser from Brother which the family use about once a week. It is very low cost and convenient. The one we have now replaced a larger model which had scanning and fax, but it's so easy to 'scan' with your phone now it's not really necessary and the machine is so much smaller because of it.

>Worst of all, I no longer enjoy the satisfaction of solving hard problems on my own anymore.

This part resonates with me. I've found that the hard problems have simply moved elsewhere, there are still hard problems to solve.

I remember coding in assembly during my studies and I don't miss those days at all. Coding become more fun for me the less abstract it became. Now that we can code in natural language, my productivity has shot up and I've never had more fun.

there are plenty of different ways to take this. You can use it as a supplement without making yourself dumber. Take the parts of your job you hate doing and inject a little AI into the workflow.

I moved on after every upgrade critically broke the setup and I had to spend time fixing it. Claude handles almost everything I need currently.
