People aren't impressed anymore when you slap AI to everything.

I pay for Claude and the CLI agent helps me a lot with boring stuff and that's the only AI thing I will be ever paying for. I predict price increases, and if it will exceed 50 usd, I will be out and do the boring stuff myself.

AI is a fancy autocomplete, and that's all it's good for at the moment. I worry what will come next, though.
