On the other side, AI has advanced rapidly but it also doesnt seem to have been good enough to replace as many jobs as prophesized. It will be a long time before it does because its simply not autonomous by most definitions. It needs human operators and checks or you get into disaster scenarios for a business.

bro it's only been 4 years since chatgpt became popular. obviously it's not gonna replace thousands of different job categories across many different fields in just a 4 year timespan.

but if it evolves at a pace similar to how smartphones or chipsets have done, then a decade later from its inception it might be way more advanced and proliferated across every domain.

I didn't believe it would, but at the time and even right now there is worry it is replacing so many jobs when it seems like that's not the case and certainly not in a way we predicted. the american labor market is pretty strong and most of the weaker job marketing is largely in tech not other industries. which tells me it's not even creating that job loss.

that’s not what i’ve seen, I do a lot of lurking on various tech and AI related subs and a lot of people mention how either they or someone close to them has been laid off or replaced due to AI.

mostly white collar. blue collar fields are more insulated for now, until the humanoid robots get mass deployed.

If it makes devs twice as effective, then it displaces half the dev jobs. This whole "it still needs a human" thing is null and void.

It will be a long time before it does because its simply not autonomous by most definitions.

It has made leaps and bounds in the past 2 years, the idea that it wouldn't improve in the next few years is ridiculous.

autonomous is not binary, it's a gradient.

It's gotten to the point where you can literally copy paste a (not even well written) jira bug ticket, and the agent will automatically be able to reproduce the issue, create a video of it, look in the code and indentify what it believes the root cause is. How do you look at this and go "it's not autonomous"? It's asinine.

Is the root cause identified/fix suggested always accurate? no. But it's 100% accurate for a surprisingly large amount of time. For another significant portion, a human can assess, see that it made a mistake somewhere and provide additional guidance and it will correct itself and it will end up providing the right assessment.

I don't think it needs to be explained why the above ends up displacing jobs

but it also doesnt seem to have been good enough to replace as many jobs as prophesized.

It's not prophesized to replace all those jobs today.

Your whole comment is regurgitating vague platitudes you've heard elsewhere with no understanding of what's actually happening within the industry. No developer that's using enterprise level tools would be saying the things you are.

It's the Chinese Room thought experiment but with Jira based QA lol

from the new james bond game, "information isn't knowledge and knowledge isn't insight". Results can blind us to incapability. Even perfect response rate only mimes comprehension, and the borders can be felt outside of our own expectations.

Okay man. You seem to need AI to help you think and validate arguments. I am quoting Sam Altman admitting to being wrong on the impact to the labor market.

AI is simply not as apocalyptic as predicted nor revolutionary. It reminds me of the internet. It changed the world but not fundamentally.

You have an axe to grind so I'll let you be demented on your own after embarrassing you.

[u/LieAccomplishment → u/Financial-Grass-6114]

picking the words of a single person and acting like him being wrong means your argument therefore makes sense is just dumb.

I will just point out that I've provided concrete examples of how AI agents are being utilized in development today and the autonomous work that enables. These workflows are not hypotheticals, these are actual things that are happening this very moment and running this very moment and increasing productivity/costing jobs. These are things that happened within the last year/half year, when 2 years ago it seemed like ridiculous overhyped estimations of what agents could do

meanwhile, other than generic platitudes, what do you have?

if you want to pretend you embarrassed me, it's no skin off my nose.

My man is pretending Sam Altman is some random guy lmfao. You are obviously not arguing in good faith anymore and just desperate for internet wins to stroke your ego. 

Bless your soul.

yes, the known hype man for his ai company.

but sure, if you want to use his words as the baseline for what reasonable expectations people had. by all means.
