I saw another article today saying how companies are laying off tech workers because AI can do the same job. But no concrete examples… again. I figure they are laying people off so they can pay to chase the AI dream. Just mortgaging tomorrow to pay for today’s stock price increase. Am I wrong?

    Some things like image recognition, text classification, are way way easier using pretrained transformers.

    As for generating code, I already used to spent a lot of time chasing bugs juniors made but can’t figure out. The process of making such bugs has now been automated.

      I took some obviously ai genetated code (it had comments so I know they didn’t write it) from an offshore senior engineer and asked chatgpt what was wrong with it, and sent the result back to the guy… cause it was right.
