I know this is nothing new, but I felt I needed to get it out of my chest.
I was recently forced to start using AI code assistants on the client projects I'm working on at my job. PMs started cutting deadlines in half for this reason, rushing everybody to finish their tasks on time.

I honestly feel demotivated because the main reason I joined this industry was to solve logical problems by creating code by myself, and now I'm limited to chatting with the AI, seeing how it generates everything, and applying corrections above it.

Is somephono on this situation as well? How do you cope with it?
