[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am a software engineer for a very big tech company, think of Cisco, Oracle, Palo Alto, and the my division just let go all junior SE, about 25 on staff, because AI can do a much better job.  I think I will be out of a job very soon due to AI in about a year or so.  The speed of improvement in AI is so scary. [/quote]

Cisco has 10000 software devs. "All junior SE" at a company like that is 25 people?

"Swedish buy-now-pay-later company Klarna, whose CEO once bragged about its automated customer service AI bots doing the work of "700 full-time agents," is now in deep trouble.

The fintech outfit is facing net losses of $99 million for the first quarter of this year, CNBC reports, which is more than double compared to the same period last year.

The company had already paused its highly anticipated IPO in the US last month, which once valued it at over $15 billion."

NP. What a dumb article, likely written by AI. Does not make any actual connection between the AI bots and the losses. Just two disparate facts.[/quote]
