Well ai made it extremely easy to finish things. Projects are usually left unfinished because the last mile is filled with boring and tedious tasks we do not like to do. AI loves those tasks. I have finished everything I bothered to, most of the time I still wrote stuff by hand, the AI just fixed tests for me (usually OS specific stuff that I can’t test locally which is a pain), told me what I was doing wrong so it was trivial for me to fix it, and checked my documentation which invariably got out of date.

I've definitely found that while "AI makes getting from 0-80 done much easier than the 80-100" holds true, it is much easier to get my work to a quality bar that I'm excited to share with my peers...

So relatable. But I have some finished projects now and some of them I use daily.

Can't really blame AI for that though.

Skill issue. I had 30 unfinished side projects even before AI. Just raw talent.

No idea what you're talking about. I'm using AI to help me on my paperclip production side project, and it's going great!
