You use Claude as a "thinking buddy", meanwhile those who spend $500+ on LLMs have shut their brains off, and have delegated all thinking to the LLM, producing tons of slop.

This is what I've been thinking lately. I've watched people showing up their setups and it's "cool" to fully automate and watch everything get done while sipping tea, but I bet you if something breaks or a product manager asks them they'll still rely on being a meat proxy.

No idea if this is the future lol

The meat proxy is very easy to just remove, no need to pay for the tea sipping. We much find where we bring value. As did all generation before us when automation influenced their work.
