Thanks. How do you think that lowers the value of an intern, can you explain it? You're right that pre-AI that feature would not have been given to an intern (because they wouldn't be able to own it). So pre-AI, customers had a problem, we paid the intern, but could not solve the problem. Post-AI, the same problem exist, we pay the same intern. The customer problem is solved.

> . How do you think that lowers the value of an intern The article shows that the market value of the intern is lower: Work was not prioritized and given to a higher-cost junior engineer. > … pre-AI that feature would not have been given to an intern (because they wouldn't be able to own it)… Meaning, a more-skilled, higher-cost employee would have to do some or all of the work. Edit: Another meaning of “worth” is a “intrinsic value”. Humans have worth in this sense.
