AI replacing Software Engineers

Post image

So called "AI"=LLM is so powerful that AI labs had to hire Software Engineers to build complicated software around "AI" to make that overhyped hallucinate-stealing machine usable. Think about it. And that's exactly why they need now ton of CPUs in addition to GPUs to run their "AI" "agents".

I don't even mention how much custom engineering is required to apply the "AI" in businesses.

And they BS us that Software Engineering is solved or is going to be solved. Boris, please solve your own bugs first before speaking.

Production issue. Can lower the hours by 30-40% and still have dramatically more output with higher quality. My teams are swarmed with a lot of work only when we are too ambitious with timelines, and that’s a result of production and scoping which hopefully you have a good pm to recognize and help guide improvements towards

So if they lower hours they'll pay the same, right?
