Thanks for the mention, Akos.

I personally dislike subscriptions because they become a fixed cost in your finances, something you can't get rid of in the future without downgrading your life.

I think we have to be very judicious with the ones we introduce. There are tools that really impact productivity when coding and others that are just hype and fanciness.

In some way, I'm happy the AI hype is cooling down. On another note I'm sad because it means I lost money on my investments hahaha

Have a great day!

Great perspective Akos.

I do feel that AI is here to stay but the grandiose promises are diminishing quite fast.

I personally hope that subscription products for developer productivity don't become a thing. It's not a great trend. The coolness of development is that everyone can program stuff without spending a lot and get better over time. I'd rather pay to learn new stuff or upskilling etc.

Thanks for the mention!
