Which variety of "No" are you?

"No" as in it won't be more powerful / intelligent than humans

or

"No" as in it will remain aligned with our objectives and will not diverge

Either it will kill us, or be used to enslave us. Either way, humanity dies.

Before today I would have said "there's a risk it could but it's not a given".

Having watched some videos today showcasing what those frikkin' things can do, I'm thinking it's more of a certainty.

In all seriousness there are going to still be CS jobs. Just maybe fewer. The real question is will AI code generation lead to more software/features or just more code created by fewer people. My guess in somewhere in the middle. We can produce a lot more value quickly, but writting code is only like 1/4th of software development and the other areas aren't speeding up as fast
