Are we losing our ability to think as engineers in the age of AI?
by•
Hey everyone đź‘‹
I’ve been building in public recently and noticed an accelerating pattern:
AI is making it easier to build… but harder to actually think deeply about what we’re building.
So I created THINKING IN THE AGE OF AI - A Structured Reflection System for Engineers in the Al Era - a guide full of reflection prompts and frameworks for developers.
I’m sharing it for free.
Goal is to gather feedback and iterate.
Would love to hear:
does this resonate?
what would you add/remove?
Happy to share the link if anyone’s interested 🙌

Spot on! Building with AI makes prototyping fast...but yeah, deep thinking can take a hit. I'll check out your guide for sure.
If you're up for it, I'm launching The Sponge on PH soon...an AI-powered flashcard app that turns webpages into spaced repetition study material to make knowledge stick. Would appreciate a follow (See "PRODUCT HUNT LAUNCH" Link in my profile)

@rianbrob thanks for the support! Here it is (just put 0 in the price field, would love your feedback on this after) https://javz.gumroad.com/l/thinking-in-the-age-of-ai
Nice, exciting stuff! I love the knowledge capture aspect of this app of yours. I will follow now.
