The difference is that GPT won’t steal plumber’s job.
- fzeroracer 3y agoGPT isn't going to steal anyones jobs. It's just the new outsourcing where the big thing in the 2000s was to try and outsource your work as much as possible. Except that problem came to roost quickly due to poor code quality and the cost to fix it was more than the cost to make it good in the first place. Same issue with GPT. It's generating low quality, poor performing, poorly designed code. Any company using it as a basis will be in trouble.
- dukeyukey 3y agoPlenty of companies make bank using low-quality, buggy code. Not the kind of places most here work at though, because they weren't hiring dedicated developers to begin with.
- HeyLaughingBoy 3y agoHow exactly do you "steal" a job?
- daveslash 3y agoAsk George Costanza, who's currently managing the Penske file.
- HeyLaughingBoy 3y agoWell, although he put a lot of work into it (they didn't call him the Little Beaver in college for no reason) he wasn't Penske material, so he shouldn't have been there. But that still doesn't answer the question.
- pianoben 3y agoI encourage you to give GPT, Copilot, etc a spin. You'll quickly be reassured about developer job security!
