Going to assume because he was making hundreds of thousands a year that he has hundreds of thousands if not a million or two in savings, assuming he saved and invested a large percentage of it. If so he has options. When they start replacing people who make $50k a year or less and they can't find a job is when the fit hits the shan.

This would be nice if it is true.

It just isn’t.

I pay for Claude Pro, and I can’t even get it to animate a simple scrolling widget without it hallucinating convoluted and functionality breaking code into the less than 500 line file.

It’s absolutely useful for some things, but it did NOT render any senior devs redundant.

At best, could replace an intern or two.

The cited post was removed by the moderators of that subreddit within the last few hours. Had looked at it this morning. Most user responses were very skeptical.

Something shady was posted on reddit?

Have to wonder though when AI is able to handle a lot of tasks that are well paid jobs, like accounting, what the economy is going to look like.

As men it’s what we were born to do. Especially to other men. But it keeps you on your toes.

My wife never understood it. “Why do you always have to pounce on a mistake your friends make” ? She’d ask. Another example of 2 sexes only.

There are all sorts of layoffs. We are Fortunate to keep working. We will just shift into other industries.

$300k sounds like a lot but it isn't.

Nope

 

[vantexan]

$300k sounds like a lot but it isn't.

Most I ever made was $48k and I was working 6 days most of the year. $300k should allow after taxes someone to save at least $50k a year and still be comfortable.

If the goal is to eliminate 50% of all existing jobs by 2050 then what exactly are all those people going to shift into?
