Getting burnout from LLM-assisted coding or any other activity is here.

What exhausts and leads to burnout, is probability.

Sometimes you get so much dopamine if it goes right.

And sometimes you feel like an idiot because LLM does so many mistakes even if you think that you prompt it right.

As the pace is so fast, you change your mind’s state so frequently and quickly that it may lead to a (mild) burnout.

This is so true. Cognitive brute-force always when dealing with AI.
