You're forgetting some things which are quite sad and reflective of our society: The CEO will not be personally affected at all. He'll still have hundreds of billions in the bank. The CEO will be paraded in front of congress who

I believe this thinking can be abstracted to software design via AI in general. If you are thoroughly prepared, and keep things simple, it's incredible what help Claude or GPT can be. I have Claude basically doing all the coding for m
