Sure, but it's either true or it's not. If they fall for the hype, the company will pay the price for it eventually.
(And it's not true - if you could "replace engineers with AI" we engineers would have already done it and be relaxing while AI does our work)
- tdeck 2y agoThe company will pay the price for it eventually but workers will pay the price right away.

Sure, but I don't care about these companies - I care about my career and the opportunities available to me in the next 1-5 years. If these opportunities are tainted by false claims about AI capabilities - that is a huge problem to me. It is irrelevant to me whether the company eventually suffers for it, because that doesn't reimburse my "damages" (if they exist). I agree with you though, and to be clear I absolutely do not believe this is anything but marketing hype - If anyone was actually doing what they claimed we'd be seeing evidence of it. I have yet, to this day, to see any evidence of such claims. If you say "30% productivity" without saying how you measured that and the methods you used, I can instantly call BS and rest easy at night. Lots of similar claims seem the same way. "outstanding claims require outstanding evidence" or something like that.
