As a programmer, I am mostly interested in whether my role is sustainable long-term and whether the models will get better. I don't feel in jeopardy yet, but two more years like this and the calculus of hiring software engineers could shift even further. QAs are already overwhelmed with work
but with super-shoes more and more runners are qualifying for boston marathon and even olympic trials marathon where it would have been impossible for them previously
and that's what "AI" currently does, it allows average people to immediately "pick the brain" of every expert in every field, in every scientific paper, without previously reading a single other google result, something that would have been impossible for them previously (super-shoes for the brain? too far?)
but "AI" isn't creating new knowledge, it's just stitching together existing knowledge from patterns that would have taken years by human hand if even possible at all, it's going to "hit the wall" eventually (in its current form)
