Real usable AI would create it with simple: 'make c compilers c99 faster than GCC'.
AI usage should be banned in general. It takes jobs faster than creating new ones ..
I don't have an strong opinion about that in either direction, but curious: Do you feel the same about everything, or is just about this specific technology? For example, should the nail gun have been forbidden if it was invented today, as one person with a nail gun could probably replace 3-4 people with normal "manual" hammers?
You feel the same about programmers who are automating others out of work without the use of AI too?
You think compiler engineer from Google gives a single shit about this?
They’ll automate millions out of career existence for their amusement while cashing out stock money and retiring early comfortably.
I have no problems with tech making some jobs obsolete, that's normal. The problem is, the job being done with the current generation of LLMs are, at least for now, mostly of inferior quality.
The tools themselves are quite useful as helpers in several domains if used wisely though.
To add to that, if there is such mass unemployment in this scenario it will be because fewer people are needed to produce and therefore everything will become cheaper... This is the best kind of unemployment.
So at best: none of us have to work again and will get everything we need for free. At worst, certain professions will need a career switch which I appreciate is not ideal for those people but is a significantly weaker argument for why we should hold back new technology.
