a lot of these jobs are among the first where humans are being replaced by AI… it’s not likely to slow down soon…

We’re in open-season mode for AI at my day job. No one’s being replaced by AI.

It’s a great tool for code/copy generation, but it gets so much wrong that now we’re both coders and qa for bots feeding us scaffolding code.

A coworker screenshotted an AI hallucination yesterday that vomited pages of garbage into their IDE. At least today AI isn’t gonna replace programmers entirely.
