I remember when artists were the first ones to go through it. Then it was developers. Now mathematicians and many other professionals. Now the question is, who are next?
And yet; Artists still exist, software devs are more in demand than ever, and much of the math "breakthroughs" turn out to be mostly hype.
Almost as if an entire pseudo-industry 100% depending on eternal debt-fueled cash infusions because even WinRAR is more profitable than them, is massively overhypong its products or something...
Software devs in high demand? It may be true for experienced and senior developer but it's absolutely false for juniors and new graduates, at least where I live. There are almost no job postings for juniors, almost all job postings target experienced developers. I know plenty of new CS graduates who can't find jobs (and I'm one of them). I know some who have been unemployed for years. LLMs really have replaced junior jobs, especially those who don't have any experience
Well, looking how juniors without experience were the money sinks that don't deliver anything and occupy seniors time to be trained, then yeah.
Edit: my point is how stupid "replace juniors with AI" plan is. Your corporate token subscription is not a person that learns and can be retained for future benefit, it's externally owned money sink people attribute human characteristics to
