Original Reddit post

I’m using way too much AI all for work, tech related. Brainstorming and creating new projects, some myself and for other team members. I go into these 3-6 hour sessions with Claude pumping out so much and sometimes I’m on til 2 am. I have no complaints about the results they are great. But I have this exhaustion almost like a mini depression that is so hard to explain. My last long session was last night I did so much and all of today I’m dead, not because I was up late I stay up normally. I want to get back into it today and I’m scared of how much it will hurt my brain. I’ve never read, typed or thought this much before but I want so much to get more done and see the results. I will not touch it tonight, I know it’s the reason but I can’t explain why it’s impacting me differently than regular work. Anyone else or any advice besides to stop using it as much? submitted by /u/MuahahaGuy

    Not sure why repost here but I can give you my opinion as someone that doesn’t use ai.

    I think you’re overworking, also what are you using it so much for? Not sleeping much or having a bad schedule is definitely not gonna help. Also do you even learn using AI? How are people supposed to discover new stuff if all they do is read some regurgitated summarised text?

    Went off the tracks but dunno, drink more water, procrastinate more take breaks every so often and while brain is not a muscle it does need exercised
