Strangely I've found myself more exhausted at the end of the week and I think it's because of the constant supervision necessary to stop Claude from colouring outside the lines when I don't watch it like a hawk.

Also I tend to get more done at a time, it makes it easier to get started on "gruntwork" tasks that I would have procrastinated on. Which in turn can lead to burnout quite quickly.

I think in the end it's just as much "work", just a different kind of work and with more quantity as a result.

Now we just need an AI that helps with more quality.

		No, what I want better is tooling that makes supervising and getting insight into what it's doing a superior experience. A far more interactive coding "agent" that makes sure it walks through every change it makes with you, and doesn't just rush through tasks. That helps team members come up to speed on a repository by working through it with them.

Welcome to management. Computers and code are easy. People and people wannabes like LLMs are a pain.
