I’m 100% sure the rush to add AI bots of various sorts (often just natural-language document search—which often replaces such complete neglect of making things easier to find that I wonder how much good it’ll actually do vs any traditional approach applied well if they’d ever bothered to do that, or even vs nothing since that’s apparently been fine so far) across basically all of every industry as far as I can tell, is helping prop up developer employment rates until rates drop and stupid money inflates the AI thing into a real bubble on the investor side.
- fzeroracer 2y agoIt's the opposite in my experience. These sort of things are actually resulting in lower developer rates. Even if you went with an out-of-the-box solution for customer support (as an example) you still needed engineers and designers on hand to customize and maintain the solution. But that's almost entirely gone away.
