That's easy for you to say because you have no skin in the game.
Imagine a service where a system can scan all your programming and engineering knowledge and expertise into an AI that then can be hired out to other companies infinitely and forever.
You might care then because this obviously reduces the profit you can now extract from your labor.
- WalterBright 3y agoI give away for free all my programming output. But programming isn't the only thing I can do. I'd pivot to something else. Or I'd use that AI to enhance my programming productivity. Just like word processors have eliminated the typing pool jobs, and have also greatly improved the productivity of writers. (I know this because my dad wrote a book before word processors, and a great deal of the time was spent typing the draft double-spaced over and over and over again.) And lastly, if you work in a make-work profession that is more efficiently done by automation, your career is doomed one way or another. For Hollywood, if the union makes it so that making movies is cheaper outside the US, the obvious is going to happen.
