Altman’s remarks in his tweet drew an overwhelmingly negative reaction.

“You’re welcome,” one user responded. “Nice to know that our reward is our jobs being taken away.”

Others called him a “f***ing psychopath” and “scum.”

“Nothing says ‘you’re being replaced’ quite like a heartfelt thank you from the guy doing the replacing,” one user wrote.

And that’s with real people.

I would bet far more money on real devs in another country being able to replace devs than “AI”.

    Exactly.

    The outsourcing supply countries have had over a decade now of working on and around large commercial software platforms.

    They have knowledge of their customers needs and the capabilities of the platforms.

    Yet how many of them are western owned, and how many are eastern owned?

    If 1.4 billion Indians can’t make a corporate-ready viable rip off of SAP in 10 years, AI isn’t going to either.
