With AI, the real bottleneck is actually ourselves

In the past, we always complained that computers were slow, networks were slow, and compilation was slow. Now AI generates code at astonishing speed and can throw out a pile of options in an instant. At that point, you realize that the slow part is actually us humans.

Our typing is too slow, our reading and understanding of code is too slow, and our ability to handle multiple tasks is too weak. The bottleneck is now stuck on the human side. We cannot keep up with AI’s rhythm. A senior engineer used to spend most of the time writing code; in the future, they may spend most of the time doing “review.” Looking at what AI writes and judging whether it is right and whether it is good becomes the new center of work.

This is honestly anxiety-inducing. When AI can check itself, correct itself, and even run tests on its own like a teammate, what exactly is the human role in this loop? The current trend is that we need to learn how to configure this teammate at a higher level, rather than teaching it step by step. Whoever first breaks through the bottleneck of typing speed and thinking speed will see a productivity explosion.
