Indeed it is removing the memorable events of achievement!

Generally memorable things are different than unmemorable things. Work is unmemorable. Driving is unmemorable except when something negative happens. Waze tries to give some positive feelings to the driving route. Waze knows that people want positive experiences sometimes more than efficiency.

Being stuck in a traffic jam is more memorable than not being so. Or we remember the negative feeling more than the fact that our drive actually wasn't inefficient.

AI tools makes us have a less negative day of work. so we feel like we have no traffic jams. "I got so much done" really means "I didn't get stuck". But it's also removing the positive feelings too!

It's an illusion of progress through our feelings and memories.

Or programming with AI brings different feedback mechanisms and systems and different emotional engagements and different memory behaviours. It's very interesting!
