Things are finally settling down for me. I was facing quite some burnout, but now looks like it is healing slowly. Instead of forcing me to perform at a certain level, I am trying to improve the quality of the work I am doing.
AI assistants also help in a good way, but one must not overly depend on them. AI Agent psychosis is real and you should be vary. It’s also a good sign that I am not needlessly burning tokens at my work and using it only when required. I like writing code by hand. AI can help accelerate the work but I am not ready to handover my work and get lazy.
Alright, now off to doing some good old fashioned debugging session.
