- The moment AI is actually good enough to replace us, it will also be incredibly easy to create new software/apps/whatever. There could/would be a billion solo dev SAAS companies eating the lunch of every traditional tech org.
- People (Executives) seem to underestimate just how much of the work is iterating and refining a product over a long time. Getting an LLM good enough to complete a Jira task is missing the point.
- IMO LLM's are also completely draining the motivation of workers. A lot of software devs are intrinsically motivated by solving the problem. If your role is being watered down to "prompt the chat bot and baby sit what comes out", the motivation disappears. This also absolutely destroys any of the creativity/discovery that comes out of solving the task hands-on.
