I could have written this article myself.

The addiction part, the ADHD part and the pending test part.

The fear of becoming addicted to AI is real and I don't think I'll be capable to stop it, considering we're asking people who struggle with avoiding quick dopamine to use it professionally in their daily work life.

My Pro went to Max(5) to Max(20) pretty quickly and I was burning through that weekly limit still, without large agentic workflows that burn tokens. Just me and 4-5 terminals. Sometimes I was happy to hit the limit because I was forced back to normal life.

I've gone back to Pro to stop what was happening.

Now I'm self-aware enough to notice the trend and put up safe guards, but that's because I've always had to adapt my environment to control my behaviour because I know direct behaviour control is abnormally challenging. I fear for those who won't see it coming, until they're in deep.

It is really weird reading things but I guess normal? It seems many feel this, including me. AI just compounds this behavior even more! Darn.

So the end game for the current generation of AI companies won't be productivity improvements but gambling, just like everything else nowadays. That's why they want to get us all into these massive casinos they call data centers and don't want us to own the slot machines.

So what that you have ideas - other people have them too. It's not ideas that build businesses but knowing right people or ability to sell products.

  > For me, personally? It helps me overcome my task paralysis. As mentioned earlier: I have a plan. A strategy. An idea. I just need someone (or something), who has fun in churning through the implementation. I have the ideas. But boy is coding exhausting. 

I find the same. AI helps me overcome any paralysis. I just think "hey it's cheap to write the prompt" and go on.
