IBM is tripling the number of entry level hires. Site limits of AI adoption and shortage of future middle managers.

| AI is not to the point where it can replace people. Companies are doing it to save money and it will backfire. |
| Calm down, CS isn't going anywhere |

The Gen AI thing at work; everyone is using Claude to code but I noticed the following:
1. Claude/Copilot messes up a lot; you have to now understand generated code to debug. So a developer maybe more productive but that developer has to be much better to digest/maintain the generated code - it's far easier to maintain your own code than other people's code. 2. The innovation isn't generated - I just had developers tell me something isn't possible because of AI. And guess what - AI doesn't think things through. AI is good for something that has already been done but not to generate something new. The AI companies hype it, the MBAs believe it, and CS majors are waiting for the world to figure it our. So, it's not CS is dead - it's dead for those CS majors that don't like to code. And where is Elon's FSD? every year it's finally here. Waymo isn't AI - it's dudes remoting the car when necessary. I'm sure both are hiring more to get there. |
