A lot of what humans do does not have a tight feedback loop needed for training and agentic workflows. This is why we are not seeing the jobpocolypse and productivity gains look a lot more like the very long-term 2% per year.
We're on a forum filled with a lot of software engineers, and we might be too ready to believe this is coming for everyone's job, not only generating code.
Indeed I’m sorry guys but LLM’s are uniquely suited to generating code and a limited set of other jobs that are similar in nature. However those jobs I’m alluding to aren’t really seeing much disruption as the interface is wrong.
Engineers have been typing in terminal windows… since forever. LLM chat bot is a natural upgrade.
Again - well suited to you! I know it’s hard to read.
Lest we forget that late-training is now 2/3 coding tasks because it is the main area where there is ROI for users, such that we can find a mutually beneficial arrangement to pay off their massive investments and debt, maybe, tbd - open weights may wreck their financial projections
