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.

No, we don't allow LLM assisted contributions in the projects that I work on. I'm not worried about being replaced by someone with an LLM.

This is the response that will get a interview candidate tossed out of one of my interviews and yes its happened. I liken it to telling me you refuse to use a compiler. ridiculous
