This guy's head will explode when he realizes that AI has been better at coding than humans for years and yet software engineering employment % has barely twitched...
- layla5alive 2mo ago? Claude code didn't get very useable until about 4.5 - and its still not better than the best humans - only faster to first implementation. You must have a different definition of most of the words you used than I do.
- holtkam2 2mo agoClaude code? Who’s talking about Claude code? I am talking about generative AI. It has been better than humans at coding for years. It is also currently much better at things like taste, stakeholder communication, and literally everything else conceivable. Yet here we are and employment is pretty much unchanged. It’s a paradox imo.
- layla5alive 1mo agoGenerative AI is.. not better than the best humans at coding even today, let alone "for years" - I'm not sure how to even have a conversation if you believe this. Better than the worst humans, sure. Better than p50, probably also true.
