I know a few guys here who were doing sysadmin, devops, frontend jobs for a few years in India and now they are driving a taxi in India.
AI took their job. There have been mass layoffs by foreign companies in India; fewer outsourcing contracts are flowing to India.
As a result, many service companies are moving to product businesses.
- ChrisMarshallNY 5mo ago> fewer outsourcing contracts are flowing to India. That's not necessarily because of AI. The trend has been going downward for some time, anyway. Outsourcing has drawbacks; usually ones that aren't apparent, until it has been in place for a while (I won't go into what they are, because this isn't really the proper venue, and I don't feel like arguing). I think that many companies have been learning about these drawbacks, in the last few years. But AI is likely to impact some (not all) jobs that would normally be offshored.
