I’ve been using Windsurf editor for about six months now, and it does most of the coding work for me.
Recently, I realized I no longer enjoy programming. It feels like I’m just going through the pain of explaining to the LLM what I want, then sitting and waiting for it to finish. If it fails, I just switch to another model—and usually, one of them gets the job done.
At this point, I’ve even stopped reviewing the exact code changes. I just keep pushing forward until the task is done.
On the bright side, I’ve gotten much better at writing design documents.
Anyone else feel the same?
Personally I have found that the sky is now the limit thanks to AI assistants! I was never the best coder out there, probably a median level programmer, but now I can code anything I imagine and it's tons of fun.
