and then these people who have no idea what they are doing will get into high-assurance industries and then all hell will break loose

thankfully the smart card industry is a dinosaur and at least no one new will be able to work in it without not using AI

also good luck replacing ASIC/FPGA jobs

quoting note1v8h…qqfc

ai is minting a whole new generation of programmers. They will be dependent on machines yes, but if they never would have got into programming otherwise then maybe it’s not too bad.

There is one thing they will not experience: trial and error and figuring out the right way to do things leading to deep understanding of how to structure programs.

Instead they will just get ai to structure the program, and if something goes wrong they will get the ai to fix the structure. Code structure just becomes an artifact of the generation.

There is a shallowness to this, but maybe programming was never supposed to be a thing that humans dove deep into. It’s way too abstract and difficult to do correctly anyways.
