Oh my god… this really goes to show that companies are currently aiming to do with AI what they used to aim to do with completely offshoring their technical expertise, because in this case they appeared indistinguishable.

I’m surprised that this is surprising to you. Companies want to spend the least amount of money possible. We’ve been replacing people with tech since forever.
“AI” stands for “absent Indians”
