I'm posting this here because Taylor didn't reply to my comment on youtube about this. While I appreciate her work at least covering the fediverse, I think its worth noting she isn't actually engaging with the fediverse with this post.

Posting this here in some hope it can gain traction and get her attention. maybe repost to Mastadon if thats something you do?

I'd like to invite Taylor to come to either Mastadon or Lemmy and do an AMA to discuss her video and the topics it contains further.

I work with claude. It analyzes huge code bases in minutes. It tests solutions explorative. Yes you need a human in the loop and a better strategy than just use plan mode but this tool is mighty. Most jobs are repetitive bullshit. Developing software is a complex task and the dev market is bad. They are developing tools to replace any other office job. Next years will be hell for academic "knowledge based" workforce.

Your experience might be based of the cheap free models.

    i am also a software developer and at a very large company and we use enterprise subs for ai. i use claude pro at home. its very good. i didnt say it wasnt good. i said it its replacing anyone. certain jobs will go away but news one will be available. like every yech transition. i am not onle a software dev but i am also 50 years old. i have seen a few transitions.

    AlSO.. bad title aside the reporters main points were about keeping power out if big tech companies, which i agree with. i also.think ai used by most people will be local soon.

    I think one of the issues with the AI bubble is, it's going do destroy x trillions of investment money if it does not replace 30% of the human workforce til 203x. I forgot the exact ratio. But people did the numbers on how much people we need to let go (or productivity increase) to make the ludicrous investment bubble in AI work out. So either it happens... Or a lot of money is wasted.

    Not sure if money is real or made up, but it's a considerable amount. So if the GDP of the US or China tanks because companies wasted their capital, they might need to let go of people nonetheless, in turn fulfilling parts of the prophecy in a different way... But with hundreds and hundreds of billions already invested per country, the investors are eventually going to need their money back and we're already committed to this kind of future.
