AI can write code, instead of buying an expensive chromecast to or an nvidia shield. I had a lenovo minipc lying around and used chatgpt to create a living room user interface that acts like a cheap console. Only need it to stream parsec or open streaming services that automatically defaults to kiosk mode on their website. Its basically barebones debian and something called big-launcher on github.
>>
>>61908255
Essentially this. Now I dont ever need to buy a small android based device for my living room. I can just buy an office minipc and replicate this.

Its going to be more like they fire 2 people and keep 1 person to oversee the AI that can do the job of the 2 people they fired

>>61908409
for every dollar they earn, 1 cent is profit, 9 cents cover electricity costs, and 90 cents are spent on buying drinking water and polluting it
it's an investment

Yes, yes, my unemployed coding kitten. AI is
*clears throat*
Le bad
*Nuzzles you*
And you're my favorite little coder. I'm sure you'll finally be able to land that big boy job you've always wanted soon after you grind enough leetcode. You're better than any AI my sweet little princess. Now... until that happens though, you know you're going to have to pay me for staying here some way

Fact: AI is not useful for any serious computer science problem. Anything AI does has already been solved and was available in some open source form before LLMs became popular. We are simply watching dunning-kruger retards rediscover fire 2000 years after the fact.

>>61908405
guess how i know you literally havent used AI for coding since 2022
shit like claude code and other agentic clis are genuinely impressive
>>
>>61908255
No they won't. Every company will just have a core team of senior developers directing AI and fixing its errors, and the bottom 90-95% will be out of work forever. Codecels literally coded themselves out of work. This is already happening with today's AI. Imagine in 2030.
Drop your ego and pivot somewhere that won't be automated by AI soon if you don't want to be culled with the rest of the useless human cattle. Something physical, avoid anything, and I mean anything that can be done simply on a computer.

i’m unemployed codemonkey and this is cope. easily 80-90% of code can now be written by ai and it will work as intended, provided you’re now careless and know what you’re doing.

Most if not all CS or white collar-jobs are “solving” problems that had already been solved by someone before. you’d know this if you were in the field.

A company that isn't PROVIDING AI but is merely using AI is itself obsolete proportional to the amount they rely on AI in creating services/products for their customers. If all they do is ask an AI to do it why the fuck would I pay them and not just ask the AI myself. I figure these faggots think the ideal company is two guys, a CEO and some minimum wage guy who's job it is to enter prompts according to the whims of the CEO.
>>
why would an app need 10k employees?
Why does it need 6k?
Are they all customer service reps or something?

AI is taking mostly the daycare email jobs that women have. It will unironically get women back in the house.

I don't care about "most" jobs, I'm talking about serious problems, of which LLMs have little or no knowledge and no ability to solve. Ask Claude to create a stable qubit. Hell, ask Claude to develop something in Houdini that doesn't look like dogshit. It won't "get better" because the amount of available domain knowledge is minimal. I will leave other things out, more important things, because you were rude and don't deserve to know about them.

The layoffs aren't putting a dent in the unemployment figures and investors think a layoff is a sign of good times for the company.

When companies lay people off "because AI", what's the real reason?

If they needed an excuse to lay people off, couldn't they have found one a long time ago?
>>
>>61908649
Tech companies have been very lenient on their employees and are now making them work harder which means they need less people
>>
>>61908649
AI IS the reason. Stop reading too much into reddit's AI cope. Take notes of all these companies laying off people for AI, if they are still operating just fine a year or two later, then it's over.

>>
>>61908576
Well most jobs are fake to begin with, so even if AI doesn't increase their productivity much they will still save money on payroll and things will function the same as they did before. Thery hade hundreds of open jobs just a few weeks ago but canceled my interview for one that was crypto related. Thought it was due to the $10k drop in one day BTC had but turned out to be the previous round of layoffs.
>>
>>61908658
>if they are still operating just fine a year or two later
"Still operating fine" seems like the wrong test because maybe they'd be operating better than fine if they hadn't laid off those employees.

Yes.

The data centers use a certain amount of the treated water made in treatment plants for cooling. That is water that is not going to the public.
>>61908421
The pollution aspect isn't really an issue for data centers. They're just running the water through heat exchangers. Now, for a chip fab, they have to do very serious and extensive testing to demonstrate that they are not polluting the water. I have worked on the testing stations. There are quite a few.

It literally (literally) scoops it up into containers and launches said containers right into the sun where the hydrogen and oxygen are split and undergo nuclear fusion so that the ca never become water again. The energy released by this process returns to Earth as photons that are captured in solar panels.

When Elon took over Twitter from Jack he was easily able to cut 80% of the workforce without major issues, and that was before AI. Maybe Jack just hires too many people and he's using AI as excuse because he doesn't want to admit Elon was right.

That they were doing shittons of useless internal reporting, presentation, meetings and "communications"?
They could just cut that bullshit and need no women in busy jobs and no AI either.

AI will get better, so the cost to value ratio will improve. Companies are also paying devs exorbitant salaries.

Mid level and up devs are the ones assembling all the AI setups. Knowledge workers are in extremely high demand right now.
It's people who got comfy doing effectively entry level work who are now dead weight.
Also, a lot of clerical / administrative type work will likely be downsized.

Why do you need 10000 staff for an application that can be ran in maintenance mode. He could probably get away with 100 staff, just replace the support with an AI that takes an hour to get it to spit out a way to chat with a human.

coders are in the denial phase. i am (well, was) a business writer. i wrote internal reports on business metrics/performance to be presented to executive level and upper level management in large companies (primarily fortune 500). was a super comfy work from home job making 70 an hour freelance using my primary skillset, writing.

it’s all totally gone now. i started in 2020, had a really good run in 2021-2022. then in 2023 no new clients. still had my long term clients so no huge crisis. then my main long term client company folded because it was also impacted by AI to the point that its value proposition no longer made sense. then nothing but crumbs in 2024, and then nothing. now i work at mcdonalds as a janitor, i’m not kidding. i have zero transferrable skills from my writing job.

all the industries i am interested in are also at risk of automation, maybe not the same extent but still to the point where getting an entry level job is a reach. so i’m in this holding pattern because i believe we will see what the long term outcome is going to look like by 2029-2030. i’ll be well on the way to 40 by then, still living at home cleaning toilets at mcdonalds.

software engineers are in the denial phase i was in around 2023. they don’t understand that the moment an AI can do say 80% of what they can do, they will be replaced to cut costs. it’s going to be 100 people competing for 1 job, just another nepotism driven hellscape. then it will happen to other jobs that aren’t 100% computer focused.

it’s funny, literally everyone i have told my story irl always says “AI can never replace my job, it can’t do what i do”
literally everyone thinks they are special and immune. i just shake my head and laugh at this point

the entire industry is gone. the only jobs now are editing and checking AI-written material for drastically lower rates. only people with genuine specialist knowledge (lawyers, doctors) can still make any serious money doing it

ads generated with ai tools ( sometimes completely ai generated) seem to be taking over television, and I have to say its gone from bad to worse. i do wonder if executives actually watch what their airing, because there is always something fake, unnatural, odd about them... even if they are short with quick transitions, there just always is something that screams "sloppiness"... and this really makes me question the quality and the value of the product/service promoted...

I'm in IT and we're currently evaluating accounting software packages with a couple higher ups in the accounting department, but were specifically told not to share the information with anyone outside the evaluation team. Evaluating new software is commonplace, but the secrecy makes me think the headcount in that department is going to shrink.

Morons. You have two outcomes:

>AI replaces SWEs
You take advantage and build your own company/app with the same displacing tech.

>AI doesn't replace you
You become part of a core tech team for an app/company that uses AI to string itself together.

So if it's that big that it "takes months" how did the AI making it not shit itself with that large context? Is anyone going to pretend that AI doesn't have an existential crisis 2 prompts in and forgets what it's trying to do? Or did they have an engineer driving this and losing their mind in the process as the AI kept doing retarded shit and asking it to fix it?
>>
>>61922761
The AI did it in two days with checks from a single dev. The blog explains
>Next.js is well-specified
>Next.js has an elaborate test suite
>We don't think this would have been possible even a few months ago. Earlier models couldn't sustain coherence across a codebase this size. New models can hold the full architecture in context, reason about how modules interact, and produce correct code often enough to keep momentum going.
This follows the what others have written that an upcoming threat for companies is software cloning.
