> this is the first model that feels like its coming for my job

Damn you must be good, I've been feeling this for around 2 years now

It's been obvious for at least 2 years, anyone who doesn't see the writing on the wall simply hasn't learned how to use these well or has severe exponential blindness.

"But it doesn't do well when writing my undertrained language" - yeah, fine. Yet. Reasonable code in that is probably one RAG + verification scaffold deployment around Mythos or maybe mythos+1. Just like it was for you learning it, because you knew how to _program_.

Yeah I agree. We're headed into a rougher job market pretty much across the board for white collar work , hitting junior people worse at this stage. Up to societies around the world to decide how to deal with this - so far we deal with it by ignoring it it seems.

The monks got mad too when the printing press was invented because it took their jobs of hoarding knowledge.

AI is just another tool, learn to use it.

And then in a couple years the AI gets better at "using AI" than the bottom 99.999% of knowledge workers, who are now out of work.

We are all doomed! Doomed I say!
