Tech worker collective perspective. Those whose jobs will generally be affected due to idiots in position of power who are ready to believe that LLMs can do a good chunk of what devs do.

What does it say about you if you let idiots have power over you?

[–] sudneo@lemm.ee 1 points 1 day ago (5 children)

That the world is not a cartoon and even idiots have structural power and it's not me "letting them"? Aldo again, this is not a "me" discussion. I will be fine. But many people in the industry will be screwed.

It's similar to when factories got mechanized, and people were promised 2 day work weeks. In reality, the number of high paying jobs shrunk, and wages compressed. That's just the march of progress:)

Well, since I have the chance to at least fight against idiots who push against their own interests (my colleagues and peers) I do.

So you'll be breaking Altman's beak with a baseball bat?

[–] sudneo@lemm.ee 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Do you think he is my peer or colleague? I wish...

Also Altman is not the problem, managers everywhere are

[–] brie@programming.dev 1 points 1 day ago

I just pictured Altman when I read "fight managers".

That's too many beaks for you to break. You'll have to wait 20 years for robotics to improve.
