Where does it say those cuts were senior software developers?
Obviously they want new workers to use AI but I don't really see anything to suggest they're so successful with AI that they're firing all their seniors and hiring juniors to be meatbags for LLMs.
- fragmede 9mo agoprobably aren't going to find a lot of articles discussing how water is wet, either.
- slopinthebag 9mo agoLOL great example. There are tons of articles on this topic: https://www.sciencefocus.com/science/is-water-wet https://www.sciencefocus.com/science/is-water-wet https://centreforinquiry.ca/keiths-conundrums-is-water-wet https://centreforinquiry.ca/keiths-conundrums-is-water-wet https://www.theguardian.com/notesandqueries/query/0,5753,-1725,00.html https://www.theguardian.com/notesandqueries/query/0,5753,-17... http://scienceline.ucsb.edu/getkey.php?key=6097 http://scienceline.ucsb.edu/getkey.php?key=6097 https://parknotes.substack.com/p/is-water-wet-or-does-it-just-make https://parknotes.substack.com/p/is-water-wet-or-does-it-jus... ...etc. Turns out, it's not a solved question!
- xp84 9mo agoThis just doesn't make any sense. Juniors + AI just does not equal seniors, except for prototyping greenfield projects. Who knows about 2 months from now, it moves fast and stuff, but not right now.

- robocat 9mo ago> just doesn't make any sense I suspect the gap is that you don't know enough about IBM's business model. When something doesn't make sense, a very common cause is a lack of context: many things can be extremely sensible for a business to do; things which appear insane from an outsider's point of view.
