I'm kind of sick of being a dev. I hate AI with a passion.

I hate the hallucinations, I hate slop, I hate megacrops, I hate the environmental impacts, I hate the massive costs. I could go on but you get the picture.

At work I often times have to review vibe code slop from people who clock in 9 to 5 and don't give a fuck (I respect that, I just wish your fucking code wasn't slop)

I'm sick of it, I'm sick of hearing about AI tooling or new models or bro agentic actions bro based on your documentation bro.

I want to switch careers, so which career is not ruined by AI?

Psychology? A lot of folks are already using ai as a virtual therapist

That is the equivalent of saying "we don't need doctors since we can put bandaids on wounds"

Psychology is about a lot more that what LLMs can do

Doesn't mean psychology can't be ruined by AI anyway.
