Psychosis would be a mental illness with symptoms like losing track of reality. I think there might actually be a bit of an anti-AI psychosis where individuals are projecting their fear and paranoia onto others and seeking confirmation bias. The need to dismiss the success others are having with AI could be triggered by personal insecurities. And of course deep paranoia is one of the classical symptoms of an actual psychosis. Just holding up a mirror here.
BTW. I have friends and relatives that have dealt with an actual psychosis. Not fun to experience up close. So, I don't want to take this metaphor too far. But if we're using big words like psychosis here, you might want to examine your motives, insecurities and reasoning a bit.
I've played with agentic AIs for coding and other use cases and have had some successes and failures. I'm fairly impressed with some stuff that is possible now and I use technology pragmatically. As I always have throughout my 30 year career.
For any new thing, there are always early adopters and those who really don't get it. And most other people let the early adopters figure things out and then end up copying what works some months/years later. And you always have some stragglers that can't or won't adapt that can't be helped.
Most of what this person describes in the article is very reasonable. Codex might not be the best model. But in terms of UX, OpenAI is getting a few things right that starting to make a difference. It's only a few months ago that their desktop app launched. It has gone through a pretty rapid evolution. As of a few weeks ago (it's that recent) you can install skills to connect your gmail, canva, google drive, work with ppt files, etc. In other words, it's now suitable for things other than programming. Before that, Claude CoWork was a few weeks earlier. So, this is all very new and fresh. I've tried some of this stuff and it mostly works as advertised.
The big picture here is that last year was about programmers discovering agentic AIs. This year, the business world is following. And there will be a lot of drama of people over doing it, making mistakes, etc. And lots of people whining about how they need to change and insisting that they shouldn't have to. Etc. But this stuff is clearly happening if you look through the noise a bit.
