Everyone is afraid about what will happen when people's skills atrophy, but the tools aren't going anywhere.
If they truly can always recognize problems and communicate them in understandable ways, then people's skills won't atrophy.
Everyone's skills will be enhanced.
New developers will learn all of the things they need to learn through using the tool.
- izzydata 4mo agoThe tools can definitely go away. They could get exponentially more expensive to where it is no longer financially possible to keep it subsidized. The bubble could pop and most of the companies could go bankrupt. It's not exactly like a calculator because it requires such an astronomical amount of resources to keep running.
- djmips 4mo agoI agree with you but there is a calculator analogy where the resources are local and while taxing for most, viable for the individual. Local AI is less capable than an army frontier model agents but still quite useful.
- theodric 4mo agoI think the most obvious impact (good AND bad) will be from people who didn't have (or want) skills to begin with being empowered to have a model crank out custom software to do little things to make their lives better. Can't atrophy a muscle that doesn't exist!
