I have similar thoughts about how it writes and I'm at best an average writer.

As long as you generate code in small increments and intentionally I don't think its a big deal.

I think every comment is talking about their 20 dollar plan. Enterprise pricing is 20/seat+ api use prices. That pricing is all that matters, the personal use tier is probably tiny

Interesting, rag seems pretty conceptually easy.

Paints not valuable at all. It's a 100 dollars of materials and a couple hours for a pro.

Makes sense, has it effected how hiring is done or resumes are screened?

> Now he’s parsing job titles like “AI strategist” and “AI engineer,”

I have seen things like this. They often just look like backend swe jobs though? Are people getting these kinds of titles without masters in ML? Or pivoting somehow?

> Now, one of the most popular jobs in tech may be forward deployed engineers,

This is true? Are people pivoting to this really?

Previous decades didn't do remotely work as well as we are now. Also South America is a cheap option now. Language is less of an issue and more culturaly similar to the us

> don't know how more people don't experience this, but staring at an llms output be confidently wrong eventually to get there in the process, or looking at the commands its running and see some really stupid things its doing drives me crazy to the point i will just stop it before it answers, i cannot handle something being that confidently wrong (even though it'll probably still get there in the end)

They do? Internet is filled with people complaining about it

That's reinforced by how hiring is done though. I rarely if ever run into companies that hire for fundamentals. Only the Google tier of companies do that.

Sre seems to be disappearing anyway in favor of infrastructure and platform engineering. Which seems to just be kubernetes admin jobs using terraform.

> If human SREs (okay, now we have to use adjectives like human ) only engage with Tier 3 incidents, i.e. the novel, never-before-seen outages, where do they build the intuition to handle them?

Ime this doesn't happen or reflect the reality of work. I had one mythical job where I wasn't directly on call and only received escalations and didn't have a problem with debugging whole system issues. I still worked on the whole system day to day.

Also I feel like this post is also my frustration with sre. In people's minds it's just the job that deals with issues pumped out by swes and they have to work magic because no one else can be bothered to try at their job. This just reinforces that idea.

Does the US have anything going for it right now besides ai and supporting industries? Something like nationalize or anything extreme would wreck the economy.we would all suffer

I know AI is generally unpopular, but isn't the government using it pretty heavily to do their jobs? From the outside it seems ingrained.

Where else were people getting answers and help from between 2018 and AI getting good in the mean time? As I remember it there wasn't really an alternative.

Maybe it was more consolidation of tech and better docs over time.

Like doing dance videos, aspiring to be influencers and trying to pump up their follows and interactions?

I'm always curious why people who don't care about work or tech spend time commenting on career sites and topics

I guess I would change what I said to specify a certain sub type then

For some cases, but the industry has already swung back on some language like master branch.

Can you still get unemployment too?

It feels like tech overcorrected from allowing assholes to be assholes. To now having words and tone policed constantly.

They have net income in the billions per quarter

The outsource comment was interesting. Gaming didn't come up in this article but seems similarly hit. I was recently surprised to see how much game dev work is done outside the US for American companies.

Also thought the graphs around covid were interesting, there wasn't a spike up or anything it's just been consistently down.

The article said we're not in a recession. I thought we were lol

It felt like there were years where good movies like stopped being made. Or just contrasted with years filled with good movies.

What came out this year that you think you'll watch again in 10 years?

It's probably consistent with the general population which views AI negatively

That's kind of where my careers been, it seems like sre has been rebranded infrastructure and platform engineering and there's not to much sre titled jobs. It's probably not to hard if you have demonstrated experience with the expected sre tools. If you happened to have made the unforgivable sin of not using k8s or terraform durring your career it sucks.

Popular is way to determine good and captivating

No lion king or toy story?

PBS looks like it has some ok stuff

What's popular with kids and toddlers that's not Disney right now?

There's some kind of skill needed in an organization to make those llms. Openai and anthropic were able too. The other llm creators, not really. There's no guarantee that Nvidia would be another leader and not end up like meta or xai's attempt
