The real fun starts when the AI comes for those same nerds' coding jobs. Want to see someone's opinions go through a 180 turn?

- mortehu 4y agoThe consequences of anyone being able to create any software they want cheaply are so enormous that I think coder employment would be among the least of our concerns.
- hyperman1 4y agoIt's called no-code(this time around at least). Quickly turn out a decent-looking app, then hitting a brick wall when the least amount of unexpected requirement turns up. Scares you the first time you see it, but both devs and artists will be fine long term.
- abstractcontrol 4y agoThe whole point of programming is automation. Having a tool that would make programming much more efficient is not a failure condition for programmers.
- creata 4y agoRight up until programming becomes so accessible that it isn't even a job any more, it's just something that everyone does.
- BeFlatXIII 4y agoWasn't that the entire goal of the "computers to empower the masses" movement in the first place?
- ben_w 4y agoIt already has, and as with art AI, I've seen worse from beginners and it's got certain failure modes and there are copyright/moral rights[0] issues and it is still obviously useful. [0] I saw this in a few of my UK job contracts in the context of signing away that right, and it seems to be "the right to be identified as the author of a work", but IANAL.
- throwaway4aday 4y agoI'm ready to change careers from programmer to AI code prompt writer.
- adhesive_wombat 4y agoDepending on what the compiler and microcode are doing, maybe you already are!
