I don't get how people don't realize that a technology that replaces junior and entry level positions in a field destroys that field. There's no skipping steps. You have to be a junior before you can be a senior, and if you don't have senior people, you don't have a field.
James Youngman (@jyoungman.bsky.social) reposted reply parent
And that's assuming that the technology can do the work of a junior at the quality of a junior. If it can't, that only speeds up the destruction because now seniors have to babysit the sabotage machine, reducing the amount of senior-level work getting done. Gen AI can't do junior work.

A.I. is popular because it gives you the experience of being a boss: you get to give annoyingly specific instructions about how to do something you don't actually know how to do yourself, and then claim credit for the end result.

A few days ago I was writing notes on how it seems to me the DS emulation doodads are coming into fashion; then you and RGC released like three videos in a row about it. Which is to say, I'm feeling pretty smart right now, even despite knowing basically nothing about any of this! 😁

Exactly! For me it's large not in a "clearly they're doing it wrong" way, but in a "I know nothing about how much this costs and clearly it's a lot more that I'd guess" way. I'd also like to know more about how that cost is structured.

No, a pigeon has feet and stuff, more difficult to manufacture than a duck. Updating it the way they would, you should probably make a cute round blob with a smile on it, and charge subscription fees. That's how you know it's good
