Are you just sitting there as if dead when using AI? I find AI work exciting, always something new to discover.

It's been a few months since gemini 3 and opus 4.5 were released and I still regularly have feelings of dread in me because I'm deprived of something (which I assume is the thrill and pride of being able to explore solution spaces in non stupid ways to find plausible answers on my own)

Maybe it's the usual webdev corp job that is too focused on mainstream code and where AI is used to sell more, not find new ideas that could be exciting..
