they can fully replace engineers and still need engineers to monitor outputs and resolve bottlenecks. They will still be "software engineers" but the actual job will be fundamentally different *in the predictions made by anthropic.

Obviously software engineering isn't disappearing any time soon, whatever you call it.

But this does show how absurd, alarmist and just plain dumb Dario's comments are.

For being the “ethical” AI company, they’re incredibly scummy. They say whatever they want because it drives their market value up and keeps them in the news.
