I'm a software engineer, completing 10 years of professional experience this year. I started my career as a web frontend engineer (it was easier for me to de...
A human engineer will get those passively at no cost to the company.
Some human engineers. I still regularly have to explain Git to people that never bothered to learn.
Also I think you are forgetting that AI is still improving and getting cheaper. Not super quickly, but even if it is too expensive now, is that still going to be true in 10 years? I doubt it.
It’s not getting cheaper. Every new model has been getting more expensive. OpenAI and Anthropic both want to IPO, but that means they need to start trying to make a profit. Their prices have been going through the roof.
Those same models can only do the shitty work they were able to do before the new models came out. You’re not making a point that anything is getting cheaper.
We literally have self-driving cars now. In super-easy driving locations like San Francisco to be fair, but that’s not nothing. They’re supposed to be launching in London this year too.

It is getting cheaper to do the same thing. New models are more expensive but also more capable.
But it’s not getting cheaper to do the same thing. Models charge by the token the price per token is going up. They don’t charge by the outcome.
The price per token for the same model isn’t going up (if you are paying per token anyway - I know they underpriced subscriptions).
Those same models can only do the shitty work they were able to do before the new models came out. You’re not making a point that anything is getting cheaper.
People kept saying same thing about self driving cars. Look where it will be in 5 to 10 years. 10 years later and … meh
It’s expensive to keep those models trained. Investors won’t do this forever.

Okey dokey
Same here I’m in awe that humanity has made it this far. I can’t believe the shit I have to put up with
