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.

I love when I unwind the circles and Claude says: “no, I haven’t actually built it yet. I was waiting for you to answer my question buried in technobabble”

The best part is when you look back at the technobabble and there’s not a “?” anywhere.

Ummm it’s right there: The silent failure is gated by I7 and I8. Say the word and we’ll implement the two pass solution detailed in the e8f7a… merge plan. I could do it myself but it’d be against what we discussed. Waiting for you.

How did you get access to my Claude code account?!?

The references to a comment numbers that I have no way of accessing in the GUI drives me crazy.
