And will your life get meaningfully worse if AI replaces developers?

I don't think so, I'm very good at using AI to produce things.

  • Well what I'm worried about is that as AI gets better, everyone will be able to use AI to produce things. Just describe the product, or just point to an existing product, and that's it. In other words, AI could became better than every developer while being cheaper. So you won't be able to get paid for your work as a developer and will need to either retire or find another source of income.

    • I do think we need solutions like UBI, universal housing and universal healthcare. I'm fortunate enough to have the skills and mindset that I feel comfortable in the direction we're going. Just like with all technology, those who are excited and having fun with it are better positioned than those who fear or resist it.
