>It's utility was never "six months away,"

6 months ago is when my coding became 100% done by AI. The utility already has been there for a while.

>I didn't have to be compelled to use it—I was eager to use it of my own volition as often as possible.

The difference is that you were a kid then with an open mind and now your world view has fixed into a certain way the world works and how things should be done.

> your world view has fixed into a certain way the world works

Yeah, it's weird. I'm fixated on not having bugs in my code. :)
