    people might joke but this is where the IT industry is headed and nobody is safe. it doesn't matter if you are good or bad, you are just another commodity. just look at how many engineering jobs were cut in the past 18 months. Oracle is now reporting it will cut 30k jobs. there is no regulation in place and by the time our politicians wake up there will be nothing left. once it was a thriving industry and now it is on the brink of collapse. the change is real whether you like it or not

      @nixCraft *(waves from "2023: Software Engineer IV; 2025: prison commissary operations team member")*

      Partly because I couldn't stomach the prompt engineering. Partly because 50+ years old. Partly because AuDHD is no longer a selling point in startup land.

            @nixCraft It's a good time to return to the dark side, from which I should never have emerged. At least there, if I use AI, I gain more than I lose.

                @nixCraft

                Software engineering went from an expert domain (specialized solutions) to an amateur domain (anything goes) to a factory worker domain (more is more).

                In that sense, AI slopping is just a continuation of the current "good enough if it sells" approach.

                The people had a choice and they chose.

                🤷‍♂️
