I would like to see a robot procrastinate getting work done for hours on end as well as i do!
Ever heard of “while True” loops? They beat even me!
But can the robot bullshit the pm during standup as well as I can?
A manager position is easier to replace than a programmer position. By the time AI is smart enough to replace you, it is also smart enough for you to replace the entire company with and run solo.
A robot won’t replace individual programmers. AI and improved processes will mean quicker code review and less programmers needed. There will be a net loss of programmer jobs but an individual programmer won’t be replaced. Rather the remaining programmers create more (as a percent, not absolute) code with better tools.
If less programmers are needed that means some programmers are being replaced
Yes. But its by attrition. There won’t be a programmer replaced by AI directly. Their colleagues will take over their work and have higher workloads but be more efficient. That’s ways been the way.
