Reaction on X: Most replies are joking or deflecting, with the top comment citing GTA VI and another asking why feel sad when they can raid WoW bosses. A few push back, saying they are technical and not sad, and one describes quitting a big tech job to catch the AI wave, while another says there is a sweet spot with 20+ years of working with engineers.
