Then I find this to be a totally unnecessary addition to a claim that they've replaced frontenders and testers with LLM. Of course no one is safe if they've actually achieved that (with no proof given) so obviously Indian programmers are not safe. Neither are east european ones, Indonesian ones, or American ones for that matter. For the (unsubstantiated) claim that actual humans have been replaced. It's like Tesla creating a full self driving car (level 5) and ending the promotional video with "Not even rickshaw drivers are safe". Just fluff.

You are in Europe so you may not be aware of the situation in North America especially Canada and the government mandated surge of migrants from India and the tensions it has created. > Neither are east european ones, Indonesian ones, or American ones for that matter. For the (unsubstantiated) claim that actual humans have been replaced. The representation of Indonesian workers here is nil. Eastern European migrants are also unable to compete with the suppressed wages that Indian migrants can fill. It's an overwhelming motif playing out across all industries. You can take a look at the scale of the exploitation of Indian migrant labour for reference: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41284574 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41284574

  You answer this to me, but then you also answer 'correct' to the post I am replying to that mentions outsourcing, which is a totally different beast than Indian immigrants. This discussion is also away from my initial intent which was to find out any sort of source, whether it be a press release, a research paper, anything related to your claim of frontenders and testers being replaced. I would still appreciate such an answer. Though I expect I'll be disappointed.
