    If your job can be automated. Your job will be automated. Even if the work it produces is hot runny shit.

    They would rather pump out pure garbage than pay an honest wage for honest work. It doesn’t even have to work. They’ll just put an arbitration clause in the EULA. Then sit back and count their money.

        Tbf, it’s not really the IT grunts pouring their heart and soul into this trend. It’s more the top-level execs seeing more $$ in their pockets at EOQ/EOY bonus time by hiring fewer 6-figure employees and relying more on AI hallucinogenic LLMs, while the grunts dabble with it fight with the stupid piece of shit just so they can say “Yeah sure I used X AI program to help speed this up” appease these idiots who believe it’s their saving grace.
