I saw another article today saying how companies are laying off tech workers because AI can do the same job. But no concrete examples… again. I figure they are laying people off so they can pay to chase the AI dream. Just mortgaging tomorrow to pay for today’s stock price increase. Am I wrong?
Nope. In fact, it’s actually generating more work for me, because managers are commiting their shitty generated code and then we have to debug and refactor it for productiuon. It would actually save time if they just made a ticket and let us write it traditionally.
But as long as they’re wasting their own time, I’m not complaining.
I’d seriously consider quitting my job if my managers sabotaged work like that
I actually quite enjoyed it. He called me on the weekend the other day because he couldn’t get his code to run (he tried for multiple hours). Took me about ten seconds to tell him he was missing two brackets, didn’t even need to share his screen, it was such an obvious amateur mistake.
Anyway, wrote down 15 minutes (smallest unit) of weekend overtime for a 1 minute call.
Well that’s kind of rewarding indeed :D
