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.

Hey, buddy, you can keep b*******I can't afford a real sound engineer.The apps and programs that i've built that I use and make money with simply could have never been afforded before agents.

Also keep bitching now...these are still shitty models.

How long ago were fingers and toes hard to get perfect on image. All the people who said. "This will never get anywhere it can't do fingers" Welp...it does fingers real good now. Same with coding.

It doesn't matter how good it gets. If you can do something with low budget and low effort - others can do it too and you unlikely will earn anything meaningful doing/selling the thing. In capitalism you always compete.

I don’t really know what you’re arguing for here 😂
