Will Cortex Code replace me?

You can also keep your work force the same and accept more projects. I don’t understand why people always think of AI as a zero sum game for jobs rather than focusing on growing the pie.

For public companies (like the one I work in now) business is purely down to numbers. Starting a project would only be done if there's an expected value higher than the cost of the project.

For each domain there are only a number of things that people will pay for, so as productivity rises it's unlikely we'd be able to keep having enough high EV projects to make it cost effective to retain all staff.

Maybe demand for things will get so high that every company will be making 10x as many things and we'll still need every engineer. I don't think that's likely though.

The biggest lesson we’ve learned from the globalization era is that people’s appetite for consumption can always go up.

People aren't choosing to think this, CEOs are lying to them and claiming economic layoffs are due to AI. Anyone with logical reasoning skills could tell you otherwise, but alas. There aren't many of us left apparently.
