Comment on Australia's WiseTech to cut 2k jobs as AI renders manual coding obsolete

Comments

Chief Executive Zubin Appoo said in the statement. “I am prepared to say this clearly: the era of manually writing code as the core act of engineering is over.”

if i was a software engineer i too would probably think that software is the core of engineering ...

i'd also say the same thing as this c suiter if my company was failing and needed to cut costs without scaring the investors !

A competent .Net developer usually hasn't had manual code writing be the center of their job for 8-10+ years.

Looking at their ASX release though, seems like they've made record profits again.

wonder why their share price is worth a fraction what it was a couple years back
