  1. 2026-05-05 / HACKER NEWSWhat Do We Lose When AI Does Our Work? — Developer Essay on Craft, Agency, and the Cost of DelegationRick Yean's essay 'What Do We Lose When AI Does Our Work?' hit Hacker News on May 4, exploring the less-discussed costs of AI delegation: loss of craft knowledge, diminished problem-solving intuition, and erosion of the agency that comes from struggling through hard problems yourself.
