That owl is dead to me.
Hot take: isn't that what we all want? Doing meaningful work instead of repetitive and tiresome tasks?
Cause they laid off all the folks who did the language work.
And he can focus on HIS creative work while making more money cause he doesn't have a staff to pay.
I worked at a company that had the best benefits and they still gaslit me and my coworkers, treated us like shit, and eventually laid us all off saying they needed to save money while announcing record profits and the CEO got a raise.

Having a debate with me isn't going to solve it. I've made my point & expressed my feelings towards it.
I'm not for corpos.
I'm for the people.
However, I don't see AI as the evil of all things. I earn my living as a software developer, I should be worried - but I'm not. On the contrary: AI lets me focus on the things I was hired for: Solving problems. A company is not bad per se just because it emphasises AI.
It's important to keep people channelling positive energy. 😀
I'm seriously against AI and seriously for languages.
