So many tech bros on copium rn acting like their jobs will never go away, but their bosses have zero loyalty to them and will work tirelessly to replace them with AI. What does it matter if it’s a worse product, or barely functional, if that’s the only option it’ll just be the norm. Companies make and kill products and services all the time, it’s a revolving door, they buy good services just to cannibalize and destroy them. Once AI moves past “vibe coding” nearly all of these jobs will be obliterated over night, it’s only a matter of time on our current trajectory
What does it matter if it’s a worse product, or barely functional
I spent (wasted) years of my career developing shitty Skype clones for cable companies and ISPs, just so these companies could say they had them on offer even though absolutely nobody ever actually used them. It wasn’t even a case of companies ripping off their customers - it was lower-level managers and vice presidents ripping off their own technically ignorant corporate executives. It was depressing busting my ass on this stuff when I knew it didn’t make any difference whether it worked or not.
