Comment on Sam Altman Thanks Programmers for Their Effort, Says Their Time Is Over
rozodru@piefed.world 1 day agoyup in the early to mid 10’s every company, startup, etc offshored to India and the drivel that came back was about on par with today’s AI/LLMs. just complete garbage that either needed heavy refactoring or just start over from scratch with competent devs. So seeing all this with AI today I can only think “I’ve seen this episode before”

And that’s with real people.
I would bet far more money on real devs in another country being able to replace devs than “AI”.

Yet, the outsourcing supply countries have had over a decade now of working on and around large commercial software platforms.
They have knowledge of their customers needs and the capabilities of the platforms.
Yet how many of them are western owned, and how many are eastern owned?
If 1.4 billion Indians can’t make a corporate-ready viable rip off of SAP in 10 years, AI isn’t going to either.
