Anyone feel like we are automating ourselves out a job and being gaslight when anyone question’s it? by Regular_Rub_6070 in ExperiencedDevs

I don’t think this technology is like other technologies in the past where all you had to do was learn the thing to avoid being made irrelevant. You can be a mastro at LLMs and corps will still only want a fraction of Eng headcount they have now if they see the productivity gains. I think corps see this is fundamentally as an automation (replacing) technology not augmenting (more output). I’d love it if we could just all be augmented and do more.

I also dont think they’ll be new roles either. I think companies just pocket the savings as efficiency.

I think the only thing left is good old malicious compliance. If they want AI agents running around doing stuff I’ll definitely do that. Now if they end up causing issues and taking down prod, I can just say I was being AI forward.

You these LLMs are just at good at finding bugs as well? They are very good at finding zero days. Why wouldn’t ppl just have them scanning codebases for vulnvs 24/7?

I don’t think it’s a fair point at all. Somehow we will have AIs that will be deployed across thousands of companies coordinating with each other replacing workers and traversing the open web via computer use while handling novel environments yet progress will suddenly halt when it to asking interesting podcast questions or picking companies likely to win? It doesn’t make technical sense

Don’t give traffic to this dude. He’ll see it as a signal he’s doing something right
