Half Of All Skills Will Be Outdated Within Two Years, Study Suggests::AI will redirect jobs and career prospects, but its impact on jobs and tasks is murky.
Yeah cause ‘works well with a team’ or ‘can explain a down month to a client’ is about to be replaced by an LLM. Bullshit. Nothing to see here.
Finally, we’re gonna depricate C cuz random people who were surveyed said so.
tbf, when was the last time you used assembly. Your skills are rusting away. It’s time you go learn something else to keep sharp. And never forget your quick basics.
This is why I just focus on Rocket League now.
lol. If the overlords want to hasten their overthrow, then sure.
I can’t think of a more likely scenario that puts the rich onto dinner plates.
They’re forgetting rule 0: do not get on the Infra team’s bad side.
I think this is a very limited definition of the word “skills”.
Finally, all these years of maintaining no skills pay off.
Already preparing to shift from IT to other venues.
If anything, AI will create more IT jobs, not less.
Looking forward to goat farming within 20 years. I’m not even joking.
Totally thought this was an Onion headline, and laughed.

Executives are such dumbasses
That is literally all this “study” did. Ask people how many of their skills will be obsoleted. This headline is ridiculous.

They’re executives. You can’t convince them they’re ideas are stupid. At best, you encourage them so they fall on their faces even faster and harder.

Maybe it’s “Half of all exec can be replaced with AI in 2 years”
aberrate_junior_beatnik@lemmy.world 10 months ago
Technically true, since you could also just replace them with nothing

That’s what this means. People whose job is approximating trends to fit in and not do too much harm think that an approximation system is going to replace half the jobs.
That’s not even critique of them - somebody should do those jobs until there is a replacement. And they consist in large part of diplomacy and such very human interactions, it’s a bit like with replacing prostitutes with machines. Same problem.

The most logical next step. AI? If you’re listening you heard it hear baby

“Executives” here refers to people who think that a text generator based on a really huge dataset with a cluster of really fast hardware is going to replace a human specialist, while it can’t even reliably replace an expert system.

I keep getting told that AI is gonna replace devs. While copilot at work is fucking awesome to use, it’s also created the scenario where AI doesn’t have to compete with devs anymore, it has to compete with devs who can use an AI to automate the easy stuff and do even more impactful work.
Not to mention until an AI can coax out what the fuck anyone even wants us to build in the first place I think we’re safe.
