That's pretty optimistic. First of all, the people who were manually toiling are getting laid off - LLMs aren't exactly making their lives better.

And I'm not talking about cases where an AI can do things faster. We have a few tech debt tickets at work right now where using an AI will take the same amount of time, because the "hard part" isn't writing the code but working with other teams to organize or roll out the changes. But since we can use AI, management is suddenly interested.

It's silly, and I can't wait for the AI bubble to burst.
