The Excavator and the Chisel

Published:

I don’t code like a machine.

I code like a crew.

First, I bring in the excavator.

AI helps me rip through the dirt.

Build scaffolding.

Lay down the rough shape.

What would take hours, I get in minutes.

But that’s not where the magic is.

Then I drop the machine.

I pick up the chisel.

Line by line, I shape.

I listen to the code.

I feel where it’s off.

I fix what the machine can’t hear.

The AI clears the land.

I craft the soul.

The myth is that AI will replace us.

The truth is, it makes room for our best work.
