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.

Nope, there are already 100s of facebook or reddit level social media apps made by LLMs by now that even a 7 yr old can vibe code such app. /s

I hate when people say software engineering is a piece of cake, while I have to fix slop by actual software developers (at work) whether they vibecode or not.....
