Oh boy, I can relate to the sentiment of the article, it feels like how it has always been in enterprise consulting.

> Later is never. We all knew that.

AI will do all the "later" things we could not do and the civilisation will flourish. :')

"There are no more juniors. There was a funeral for their passing in 2024. Nobody came. The machine does what they do now, but cheaper. Of course, juniors weren't valuable for what they produced, they were valuable for who they would become: the senior engineer who knows where the bodies are buried. We optimized for output, and abolished apprenticeship. A few years from now, we'll wonder where all the seniors are. We shot them. Nobody will remember."

is brilliant writing. It's such good writing that it might convince you it's true. But it's cope. By that point, all senior engineer jobs will be automated too. And companies with old unknown chron jobs and USB sticks will get replaced by ones that innovate.

lol

Funny and insightful! AI can't write articles like this :)

Is that ironic at all or is it really helpful? Hard to say.

Amazingly Real.

Very good simple explanation for what is happening.

Think this is very good article, and good to highlight with a link to an older one.

The Moloch article from Scott Alexander. Covers the broader themes.

Software just seemed immune from it for a couple decades, but Moloch caught up to it.

So good. I had this read to me by Eleven Labs' reader and it somehow very very good with conveying the emotion. 5 stars, will recommend
