This should tell you everything you need to know. It’s not about AI, it’s about using AI to use as an excuse to do what most corporations were already doing: extract more work out of employees without getting them a pay raise, and if they can’t provide that, get rid of them.

- wnc3141 2y agoIn the short term, I fear the most useful application of AI is as a bargaining chip in favor of upper management. That is because while AI might not be able to replace development, it makes developers compete against perceived alternative that doesn't take wages or healthcare. The whole ~80% as good for 10% of the cost philosophy etc.
