The Indians and the eastern Europeans are going to be the ones babysitting agents. There is no way in hell the companies are going to continue to pay US salaries for any of this within a few years.
Might be the opposite. Something like a technical product manager who understands users and the business.
I think that argument made way more sense back when people were manually programming. Considering how small a delta staff cost will be compared to token cost, it makes way more sense in the new world to hire more expensive staff who better understand the nuance of your requests imo
Tokens will only get cheaper over time.
I don’t know what you’re referring to, but we end up paying less than $1500 on average in token cost for each developer per month while paying them upwards of 15,000 a month. The human cost is much much higher than what you pay for in tokens and tokens will be dirt cheap in a few years once all the data centers are online.
