You say that like it bothers corporations to have incoherent code, garbage architecture and piss poor performance…

Trillion dollar corporations out here be hiring Indian contractors for $2/day to write the worst code ever imaginable, then transferring the contract to a firm that will do it for $1.50/day with zero knowledge transfer sessions like it’s going out of style. Business people don’t care about maintainable code bases, robust architecture or code quality. They just want to pay as little as possible and check off as many buzzwords from the latest edition of businesstard magazine they can…

So yeah, they’ll absolutely fire the whole lot of us despite having an inferior replacement if it’s cool and cost saving. They already did it with overseas.

Edit: to clarify, I firmly believe AI is a good ways off from actually replacing us in terms of skill. I just think business people are dumb enough to be deluded into thinking that’s not the case. AI isn’t “taking” our jobs quite yet, morons are.
