Its so silly everyone being dependent on a black box like this
You will literally build nothing but the most primitive of devices unless you accept black boxes. In fact I'd argue its one of humanities great strengths that we can build on top of the tools others have built, without having to understand them at the same level it took to develop them.
It could actually be a health problem. Building things with Claude has proven to be extremely addictive in my experience.
We are surrounded by black boxes we depend on - have been for at least a century.

It's the logical result of "You will own nothing and you will be happy"... You are getting to the point where you won't even own thoughts (because they'll come from the LLM), but you'll be happy that you only have to wait 5 hours to have thoughts gain.
Everything in our life is a black box, but I agree that depending on non-deterministic and sporadic quality black boxes is a huge red flag.
It’s a really cool shade of black though.
