They are going for them, but they won't get them in the next 5 years at least, probably more; this move has nothing to do with AI.
The level of human interaction required to distill the abstract and implicit requirements of the customers into a machine-implementable format far outstrips the capabilities of current LLM based systems, and I say that as a daily GPT and Copilot user. It will just re-balance the workforce, turning 10x programmers into 50x programmer-project-managers, hence just ever more scarce.

- dangerwill 4y agoBecause there won't be a 5x increase in the amount of work to do. When companies are given a choice between doing the same amount of work with 5x fewer employees vs doing 5x the amount of work with the same number of employees, they will almost always go with the less risky path (doing what they have always done before just with less).
