How did AI make you "bad" at your hobbies?

(Apologies if I'm missing your point)

Hmm.. I meant to make my point in isolation from LLMs. I definitely don't feel that way about learning music.

I do kind of understand it when it comes to programming, though. Hobby-like side projects often felt like they had some utility down the line, even if not directly applied. It's fun to show others what you've accomplished, to show off, maybe land a job from being noticed, etc.
