    We’re currently into year 2 (or more, depending on how you count) of this shift happening and I’m not seeing many signs of such a correction on the horizon.

    The entire stock market is in a bubble. You don’t need me to explain why - there are so many articles and videos online covering it, from well-known video journalists like GamersNexus to written articles by Financial Times. This Wikipedia article covers both sides, though you’ll notice that the oppositions on that page come from people with a financial interest in it. The correction to this bubble would cripple the economy (which seems to be a recurring phenomenon these days).

    This is factually happening particularly to entry level programming jobs.

    Entry level jobs were never about productivity. They were about investment. Weird to say that AI is “replacing” them when it was never about them being super productive.

    The rest makes no sense. You’d hire more people if their output is so high because every programmer would be worth way more than what you’re paying them.

      Yeah I’m kinda done arguing with that guy too, probably asking Grok to come up with arguments 😭
