I think the whole "AI will replace developers" thing makes sense to people in silos.
I want to do X I can ask AI to help me with X.
But the thing is that as businesses grow and scale one person cannot even keep in their head all the things that have to get done, let alone write it in such a specific way to get an AI to accomplish it.
Even Jr developers (if used correctly) are not just code assistants, they can actually take your mental load away as they grow and then provide projects / ideas that you didn't even originate.
People have mental limits to how much they context they can keep in their head at the same time, AI does not magically solve this fact.
Hire and develop talent, share the load.
- zbentley 1y agoNothing you said is wrong, but: > makes sense to people in silos Investors, especially PE investors, are in a motherfucker of a silo. The sign on their silo says "short term growth at all costs. ZIRP/dotcom boom days are never coming back. The last train is leaving the station, and even if it isn't the real deal like eCommerce/app stores/social media, you had better be on it, because there won't be another one." That last train is AI.
