LOL… you did make me chuckle.

Aren’t we 18months until developers get replaced by AI… for like few years now?

Of course “AI” even loosely defined progressed a lot and it is genuinely impressive (even though the actual use case for most hype, i.e. LLM and GenAI, is mostly lazier search, more efficient spam&scam personalized text or impersonation) but exponential is not sustainable. It’s a marketing term to keep on fueling the hype.

That’s despite so much resources, namely R&D and data centers, being poured in… and yet there is not “GPT5” or anything that most people use on a daily basis for anything “productive” except unreliable summarization or STT (which both had plenty of tools for decades).

So… yeah, it’s a slow take off, as expected. shrug
