not sure why some comments are cynical, this is actually the best take i've seen so far but the fact is a lot of jobs are CRUD web apps and those are certainly gone at this point, i've seen a few companies where they laid off their development teams and retained just a few product owners. in some the business owner realized he can just maintain and manage their web based enterprise tool without paying the vendor or a team to maintain it.
being close to gpu is a good advice but i also dont know where to even start, its such a daunting thing, i still dont understand how people are creating new models or able to stack layers of what appears to be waffles of neural networks with some fancy arrows, im like how do they know how to put all these things together?
thirdly, the intense competition is a given because if your boss who doesn't know coding can start pushing PRs and it just works then you are in big trouble.
so all of this points to one thing, those who are already rich with distribution, fame, recognition are going to benefit immensely from AI and everybody else in the middle are just going to straddle along.
There won't be a UBI, nor will there be any pause in inflation, we are headed for medieval times in terms of gaps not only in wealth but dating, reproduction, food pretty much across the board, its uplifting a small number of people to the stratosphere and everybody else trying to keep afloat.
How wild would it be that these socioeconomic gaps fueled by AI could cause actual societal revolution not the innovative kind but a Marie Antoinette decapitating event? I just see all sorts of policies and tech pointing towards delaying this inevitable outcome that is what happens when a large number of single young unwed men without jobs gather in urban centers (ex. Syria)
a lot of jobs are CRUD web apps and those are certainly gone at this point
We thought Rails would do this. I think it’s safer to say that CRUD is now cheaper than ever, and that changes what the job of producing it looks like. Remember the Rails Bro? I suspect we’ll see something like him for a while until this all shakes out.
