Too bad that software developers are carrying water for those who hate them and mock them for being obsolete in 6-12 months, while they are eating caviar (probably evading sanctions) and clink the champagne glasses in Davos: https://xcancel.com/hamptonism/status/2019434933178306971 https://xcancel.com/hamptonism/status/2019434933178306971 And all that after stealing everyone's output.

    What do we want? Meaningless preventable toil! When do we want it? Now!

      Nobody wants meaningless preventable toil. What people want is a living. Nobody would be afraid of AI taking their jobs if it didn’t mean that they’d get fired.

        Do you mean real hand-crafted clothes, not soulless machine-weaved rags?

I’ll believe it when those same engineers fix CC’s awful performance (mostly kidding, though I do wonder why they can’t. Feels like it’s doable). In reality that man is hoping to IPO in 6-12 months, if anyone is wondering why the “use claude or you’re left behind” is so heavy right now.

The enthusiasm so many devs show for it is also quite bizarre, saying things like "AI makes me so much more productive," with the implication that they will be its primary beneficiaries, and that it won't result in a massive reduction in demand, compensation, and status for developers, adversely affecting them. Even more bizarre when you realize these devs aren't the ones optimizing some popular video codec or writing avionics software for a fighter jet, but instead gluing together NPM packages--probably the first or second rung on on the software "innovator's dilemma" ladder of disruption.
