I respect this choice, but also I feel like one might need to respect that it may end up not being particularly "externally" valuable.

Which is to say, if it's a thing you love spending your time on and it tickles your brain in that way, go for it, whatever it is.

But (and still first takeaways) if the goal is "making good and useful software," today one has to be at least open to the possibility that "not using AI" will be like an accountant not using a calculator.

While I tend to agree, I think it's super easy to think you are using AI and being productive and then hitting a brick wall once all the things start failing because the system is not internally coherent.
