Recently I gave my first ever presentation at iO. It was about what it actually feels like to be a junior developer in a world where AI is just always there. This is a write-up of that talk, including what the room said back.

A short read, but I really got a lot out of it. One thing I've started losing with the rise of AI and didn't realize until now is the communication with coworkers about current problems we're working through. I reach out to people in the git-blame log, and others used to reach out to me. But now everyone asks the AI, so we're even more siloed than before.

It feels less like we're working together and more like we're working next to each other.
