It's funny, because right now the top news on HN is about OpenAI's "Ten advances in mathematics and theoretical computer science".
So I suppose which is it? Is AI going to replace us all, or it's not even capable of writing basic code?
I've never seen a topic so divisive where people's experiences differ in such magnitudes.
I suppose the biggest thing drawing this distinction is that on one side, you have AI releasing features which is all the business cares about. On the other side you have it generating slop, which is all engineering ever cares about.
I think in this battle, executives are going to eventually win. They had been looking for a way to crush the engineering department's value for years and AI seems to be their golden ticket.
The pesky dev cost center can finally shrink and they don't have to bother paying them six figures thanks to LLMs..
