What's more interesting is how the big names in our industry, the ones who already made their money as you say, have turned quickly since the end of 2025. I think even the most old school names can see that the writing is on the wall now.
What do you mean turned quickly?
Changed their opinion/public stance completely sometimes only months apart. For example "I love programming" to "if you aren't with AI you are behind" within maybe only 6 months time. Its almost like anyone with any public opinion in software is being paid to say it now and boost the AI hype.
Yeah, I'm surprised by this. The pragmatic engineer publication is full of them.
It may be that most of these people only see the benefits, or don't think they'll be adversely affected by this.
