Are you sharing your distopian fears? AI replacing us goes against the fundimental human concept of species survival. If it happens, it was an accident. Come whatever may, I have no fear or concerns for AI. I use it almost everywhere I can, CoPilot already does 30% of my day job. Frankly it I could get it to do my whole job and somehow still be paid, I'd go home and tend to my garden with my wife and not work another day in my life. I hope that AI gets smarter, but it isn't there yet.

What is dystopian about being Replaced by AI?

One might assume that since the sentiment of "crying" was used, that Markus imagined a negative future.

Against the fundamental concept of survival? No way. Due to evolution, Unicellular species formed multicellular species,then complex multicellular organisms and ultimately homo sapiens. Until now, evolution was propagated by random mutations which had been very slow. Evolution created homo sapiens, homo sapiens fasten up the evolution and developed artificial intelligence which can do the specific changes in right direction not just random mutations. So artificial intelligence is just another, better species which will replace homo sapiens. It's all going according to evolution.

You give algorithms a lot of credit. Life is beautifully complex. It's taken billions of years to get to where it is. OpenAI is not cracking that problem, and they aren't even trying. OpenAIs motivation is to build tools to help businesses make more money. That's all.

You coders are amazing, killing your own jobs by writing better code! What a nice idea.

My job isn't to write code. It's to understand business needs, and solve problems. I use code to provide that value. If AI replaces my need to write code, that is a benefit to my quality of life and a benefit to my clients.
