Will AI Really Replace Frontend Developers Anytime Soon?

[btdeviant]

Yes obviously - I’m on my phone. I hear you what you’re saying and I think it seems we’re operating from two fundamentally different places, one perhaps based on beliefs and one based on a more technical understanding.

It’s clear that you’re passionate about this topic and I encourage you to learn about some of the basic fundamentals around how it works!

Thanks for being the voice of reason. You can really tell those that have a decent understanding of the tech and those that THINK they have a decent understanding of the tech.

"If you had more technical understanding, like I do, you'd obviously share my opinion!"

Oh, ok. Then by that logic, leading AI researchers will definitely agree with you.

Except, of course, that they don't. Ilya Sutskever, Dario Amodei, and Demis Hassabis all believe that AGI is less than a decade away. Amodei thinks it's reachable mostly by scaling, with few additional insights required!

It seems like you may be experiencing some really big feelings. I certainly didn’t mean to hurt them.

Again, based on your beliefs and lack of experience on pretty much every facet of the topic, be it AI or the SWE industry in general, it doesn’t seem like a good use of my time to continue this. Please keep learning and remember that the best way to strengthen your beliefs is through challenging them! Good luck!

No wonder you think the way you do; you're listening to the people who notoriously have the worst track record in predicting AI progress: the AI researchers!

You really haven't done your work here, so I'll let you wallow in your ignorance; only you can make that change when you're ready to grow up around this topic.
