Comment on Taco Bell rethinks AI drive-through after man orders 18,000 waters
Vanth@reddthat.com 15 hours agosame wages and less jobs to go around
If we’re lucky. It’s more likely to be lower wages. “We don’t need to pay experienced programmers anymore, they aren’t writing the code after all. We just need cheaper, less skilled people to review the code that is already 99% fine”.
💯 Not about the tech, it’s about who is going to use the tech to make life worse for the working class.
It’ll go the other way, eventually. Keep the experienced people who are willing to use AI and can handle the more complicated things AI can’t.
But for now they’re just firing people and hoping things still work later. Since research and development both have delayed results, they can celebrate their win immediately and not pay the consequences til later.
