Excuse me, haven’t we already seen tech companies going back to using junior programmers and boilerplate code because the LLM tokens are more expensive than just hiring people?

    Not really no. There might've been few outliers.

    Companies are trying to spend their money more efficiently right now (as in, "make the genie work peasants, but for pennies").

    That's why taxpayers are paying for massive data centres that poison their neighbourhoods.

    More data centres means token become cheaper and more jobs get replaced.

    Tax payers literally paying to reduce the number of jobs for their children to work in the future.
