It should but the political and moral implications of the hyper-scale AI industry is sullying it for many. Edit: not to mention the hardware price spike that is killing the electronics industry as a whole and reaching beyond.
Software used to be a really serious endeavor because making most software was hard work, and required a lot of sustained effort. Now that software is cheap, it has permission to be fun and childlike.
Software was fun and full of joy and wonder for a lot of people before AI. People experimented. Did weird things. Even though it required effort, a lot of people enjoyed it, and the effort of learning new things was part of the fun.
Maybe not for you, dear reader and implicitly author of TFA, and that's fine. It's been surprising to discover how many people on this forum ostensibly for intellectually curious people who enjoy the art and joy of programming hated everything about it but the money.
But don't start revising history now, all of this is still too young for everyone to have forgotten what it was really like. Don't pretend there wasn't a party in progress or that people weren't drinking out of the punchbowl you pissed in.

I'm the author.
Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed experimenting with code as much as anyone. But I enjoyed the experimentation, not the code.
Don't know why you're pissing in punch bowls, sounds gross? Don't do that

I guess the mind-rot has already set in.
You're the one pissing in the punch bowl. That's why I used the word "you."
