Putting all my requirements into words just to be misunderstood is the worst part. In my brain I have everything layed out. Then, the clanker will miss nuances and I have to elaborate or realgin. It would be okay if it would be a junior. But it is advertised as a superior.

I understand that faster results may be rewarding; But nothing as rewarding then refactoring some legacy application by hand and deleting 50% more LoC then adding/modifying. Or picking the exact right abstraction now which I will use in two weeks from now and happily grind on my solid, craftsmen stones layed out beforehand.

Imho our craft was not understood beforehand. Now folks think they can grasp everything one mentions on the same level - they have "built" similiar things with ai. So it is even more frustrating to argue about stuff.

It is the worst technology ever emerged imho.
