I feel bad for people who accept AI. They're going to wind up just as replaced by it as I will, but it will somehow come as a surprise to them despite the writing being on the wall for ages

I imagine there will be a lot of regrets in the future from people that were early adopters that eventually got pushed out by the AI they love so much

Regret? Of what? The tech is here. You won't slow it down by not using it. People need to either adapt by moving to more and more niche areas, or become the person to be retained when the efficiency gains materialize. We still don't have the proper methodology figured out, but people are working on it.

That said, I'd agree that people who currently claim 20x speedups will indeed be replaced.

There must be plenty of people who "accept" it in a fatalistic manner, where the final result will not be a surprise.
