Yeah he’s a creep and so are you

Many have already touched on this, but you hit the nail on the head with the third paragraph. Always smart to prepare but any attempt to use this to reduce workers will go horribly. Saving isn’t crazy in this regard but wouldn’t plan on it being long term until LLMs can become less expensive, have better reasoning and most importantly have at all better performance on longer context windows without impact on performance. These aren’t easy solves, they brush up on fundamentals limits of the tech

If you are truly feeling super anxious, feel free to dm me. Have released gen AI tech though admittedly only in that space for about a year and a half and… Ur good. Happy to get in depth about it but genuinely you are good for so many reasons that I’d be happy to expand upon.

Main point though for programmers will be it’s expensive as fuck to get any sort of process going that will produce complex systems of code. And frankly I’m being a bit idealistic there. That’s without even considering the amount of time. Love AI, but hype is massively misleading the reality of the tech.
