Thank you for the well thought answer.
I can certain pivot my image to highlight what business problems I can solve.
This could also be beneficial since sooner or later some AI tool will replace most of what I do day to day.
I think it will make most "bad programmers" obsolete.
You're not wrong.
All these facts are shadowed by the new life structure, which it seems I have to adjust.
If my mental health deteriorates, non of the above will matter.
Thanks for sharing your experience!
There's certain a disconnect between my tasks and how the product is actually used. I can certainly try to get more involved there.
I think the combination of the new life, being lonely (I am not a loner) and the responsibility of a family are making me seeing things from a new perspective.
What triggered this burnout is the very real possibility I will be replaced by AI and I wouldn't know what to do next
