Since I can only read the first two sentences, the rest being blurred out by the paywall, I will only comment on those two sentences.
It's true. Developers are paid a lot, but there's often a lot of bullshit in the way of actually writing code. Such as meetings, calls, more meetings, inefficiencies in how tasks are assigned, dead time while you wait for other people to finish whatever they're doing.

- bell-cot 2y agoNo paywall (from the US, Firefox & NoScript). Viewed that way, the article's text is dominated by this over-the-top-highlighted bit in the second half: > Swami Sivasubramanian, AWS VP of AI and data also wrote in an article published by Business Insider [ ... ] "I believe that AI isn’t coming to take away jobs—it’s coming to take away tasks,” Sivasubramanian wrote. “80% of employees’ time is consumed by low-value, repetitive, time-intensive, uninteresting tasks, while only 20% gets devoted to the more interesting activities that generate higher value for the organization.” SO - Let's say you had an AI "programmer" assistant. Or several. Sadly, they weren't competent to write a single line of code. But they were perfectly happy being sent into endless meeting with the PHB's, suits, and whatever other infernal influences might infest your workplace. Would that 10X your productivity?
