    And then we should all charge outrageous hourly rates to fix the AI generated code.

      They’ll try the opposite. It’s what the movie producers did to the writers. They gave them AI generated junk and told them to fix it. It was basically rewriting the whole thing but because now it was “just touching up an existing script” it was half price.

        They can try. But cleaning up a mess takes a while and there’s no magic wand to make it ho faster.

        Yeah they’ll try. Surely that can’t cascade into a snowball of issues. Good luck for them 😎

          A strike with tech workers would be something else. Curious what would happen if the one maintaining the servers for entertainment, stock market or factories would just walk out. On the other hand, tech doesn’t have unions.

      You better fucking believe it.

      AIs are going to be the new outsource, only cheaper than outsourcing and probably less confusing for us to fix
