all programming will be AI within 5 years. This is why I don't take softwaredevelopmentfags who are developing AI seriously. You are developing AI to solve INTELLECTUAL tasks. Guess who is doing that now? Software Devs. The first thing you teach an AI to do is develop itself. Guess what fag, you just automated your own job. Now Mr. CEO or executive can fire your ass and take your IP. Welcome to business...fag.

Actually companies have been hording entertainment to create what they refer to as a "lifetime entertainment bundle" of media that can be dished out and remastered as a person ages. This way there isn't a need for "new" content, just 15 years of content that is learned by the young, referenced and remastered for nostalgia by the middle age, and then syndicated for the old. There's no need to make anything new if you die before being able to see what's been produced up to this point.

Now that BSV exist, you should at least be concern. Everything that Chainlink proposes will be done onchain in bsv blockchain.

I agree with this. What benefits is capitalism getting us right now exactly? The tech market has completely stagnated over the last 15 years- and amazing tech and discoveries were always the promise of capitalism. Moore's law ended.

>>12820656
>Software Dev is unironically the last job for humans
I wouldn't say that.
I'm pretty sure the size and flexibility to strength ratio of my human hands is better than what is in any robot arm I've seen so far.
I'm not saying it's impossible and I'll be impressed when I see it, but it'll take a couple of years for a bot to properly lay cables and screw something tight in places where I constantly scratch up my arms to reach.

And if you say that another bot should design it that it's reachable then the machine will be bigger
and if you think it can be split up in smaller parts, it will no longer catch the vibrations well enough.
Then probably that there will be a design by a bot that compromises on the vibration to accessibility ratio, which I have to give to you
But that's still all behind a large AI achievement wall
I think my job is save enough for a little while
