The point is you'll need less humans to do the same work. Possible far less, maybe it'll be a smaller ratio to start with but eventually that ratio will grow.

Most organizations are there to make profit for shareholders, if more profit can be obtained through less hires while still meeting money making goals the you can bet your bottom dollar they will hire less people where possible.
People early in their careers should be ready for this as one day there may be far less times available to them in this field.
- wilsonnb3 4y agoLiterally every programming advancement from punch cards to now has made you need less people to do the same amount of work but we have more programmers working today than ever before. Your outlook sounds plausible in a vacuum but doesn’t match reality.
- pleb_nz 4y agoHappy if it is it different for sure. And It's not quite there yet, but if it keeps going the way it is this will be the first time a tool will have significant impact and a single person can do the work of 5 in a lot of industries and domains, not just software. This might be a bigger evolution in the coming iterations and might be the biggest thing since electricity and the internet. Pretty exciting, but I would also have options or be deep in the thick of it if I were younger.
