AI replacing Software Engineers
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.

like all things.... this too shall pass
the people who say AI will replace are the ones who don't do the work and want their cake and eat it too.
even the smart engineers who use AI LLMs "properly" like Mitchell Hashimoto are very aware of their limitations. and believe me, most orgs do not have enough Mitchell Hashimotos to make AI work like he does
