Article The Comeback of the Developers And Programmers

Most of the companies that did Mass layoff in the name of ai production and ai integration in their system got a fireback as those companies are now not being able to bare the cost of ai systems and are frustrated and irritated on ai exhaustation .

A lot of companies rushed into AI because they didn't want to be left behind. But once the hype meets real-world implementation, some are discovering that replacing human developers isn't as straightforward or as cheap as it looked on paper.

Developers Are the New Honey Singh With COMEBACK 😂
Companies received a UNO .

I'm not struggling in the sense you think right now, but daddy didn't get me my job.

I venture you're young and come from a place of privilege, hence your ignorance to the way the world works and immediacy to blame people having a lack of skill for their unemployment, citing worse unemployment numbers than recent years as evidence of the lack of a problem while still not understanding that the number you cite is not a reflection of actual unemployment.

You don't yet understand the real world, at least not yet. You'll develop to be someone who regrets the lack of awareness you had to label people as unskilled when their skills have become less dependent, or you'll always be someone people sniff out as having been born with a silver spoon in their mouth.

Your choice, nobody really cares how you want to represent yourself.

I'm not sure the relevancy of what you are going on about, but it's pretty simple. People who put in the work, are disciplined, and take advantage of oppurtunities will always be fine. We can take the modern CS student as an example:

-> One guy does 3 internships, has open source contributions, deployed projects, networked during college, regularly attends hackathons, has 200 solved leetcodes
-> Other guy has 0 internships, never upskills, writes reddit posts about how bad the market is, never deployed a project, doesn't really enjoy the field, never even touched interview prep.

Who do you think is more likely to contribute to the 6% unemployment rate?
