Put it another way, the issue is that resources are not shared more equitably. This is especially egregious considering that LLMs are trained on all human knowledge. We've all been contributing to this enterprise, and what we may end up getting in return is unemployment.

How are you dealing with that executive dysfunction in the end?

How are you dealing with the executive dysfunction part?

There is also the famous saying from IBM.

  > A computer can never be held accountable
  > Therefore a computer must never make a management decision

It makes sense. But most decisions, by quantity, are not management decisions.

How and why did it change your income?

My dev skills had atrophied long ago, my career felt like it was at a weird dead-end. I was still very aware of various technologies, but didn't know the syntax of every latest framework.

I still had b2b product ideas, but was never able to raise funding. I built an MVP in 2 weeks, got a co-founder to pay for my beans and rice for the year spent building, getting feedback, and refining. We now have paying users.

This is it. Great job. I'm in same boat having been a tech pm in the '01 era but having moved over to business side after. Now having fun building tech stuff again!

Would be real interesting to see a similar study on tea.

It was mentioned, but not by name.

I think that's a joke. You know how you can apply filters with different backgrounds etc.

Instead there would be a filter where it looks like you have closed your eyes.

> but if it does, you don’t get to say you were blindsided.

It's absolutely a commodification of the engineers skills. The shape of this is that if they could, they would cut you out entirely.

So it looks that you will be drawing the short end of the stick at one point or the other.

Oh I agree. I need to be developing more product skills as a result. But the threat of that is very clearly there.

I honestly don't think LLMs is just any tool.
