Software engineering as a viable career path will be dead very shortly.

Hard labor will become the most valuable career paths because the maintenance costs associated with the machines will be too high to look after.

It's because they want control and the easiest method of control is to lead people into lies.

lolno

factor in claims against your company caused by injury (which are immensely common in construction) and the rate of turnover having to teach new skills constantly to novice builders and this becomes the most lucrative area to automate

>>58096072
You might be right but consider that:
Robots which are able to do construction work will be utilized intat least 10 years. I also assume that they'll be incredibly complex machines so their maintenance would cost more than injury compensations.

There is a reason why cashiers still exist in almost every McDonalds; even though kiosk systems are incredibly easy to install

Delusion. Even a cursory understanding of how ai works would show you of how pathetic it is at problem solving. Any career that requires even the slightest technical thought or planning will be very safe from ai for decades to come.

The world I'm describing already is starting to exist. Look at the Oil and Gas industry. There are people in entry level positions making more money than Lawyers, Software engineers and Architect. They make even more than that working in remote locations.

I've seen this as well as the joe rogan podcast with that dude who thinks he can reverse his biological age (he's 76 but looks like he's 70 so he's definitely winning with his 100 supplements) who said that AI is exponential so in 10 years it'll outperform humans
bla bla
Truth is none of these AI models operate on a basis of truth. They literally do not. They're just approximators. A regression analysis. Like sure we humans do it too, partially but not like this.
they won't get better with more data, because the fundamental structure of the models just suck.

Literally because granny would like to speak to a real person thanks very much and do they take cheque?
My local fast food places with kiosks don't have dedicated cashiers, they just stop doing whatever else they're doing when they notice people waiting

I don't really understand the hype, AI can't program for shit. It can spit out code snippets, but you can also go on stackoverflow and copy them. It won't ever program anything original and useful because there are way too many edge cases in even the simplest programs.

Then you also have the problem that AI can hallucinate, so you need to understand the programming anyway. At best it's a fancy autocomplete.

the 90s called lel
in current year 90% of programming jobs don't involve problem solving, they're mostly code monkeys, consider how many women, jeets and halfwits do programming now, do you think they do problem solving? most of them don't even know basic computer science and related math. they will all be replaced easy.
actual developers and project leads have nothing to worry about in the next 15 years i guess.

A few years ago I tried to have a conversation with chatgpt about a song of ice and fire. It's literally just compiling and synthesizing chat room and fan site conversations and regurgitating them. It gave nothing definitive or new, it was pathetic. That's when I realized true AI is a long way off it it ever even exists at all.
