I've read a few stories about parents questioning the over-use of AI from their child, adding to that I've seen my fair share of adult who cannot do anything without asking ChatGPT first.
different view but for that I need to pm/dm you. Any way that is suitable/comfortable to you. I'm not a scammer and I don't have malicious intentions. It's not the same old boring responses which bring more uncertainty. It's obvious but it's not that obvious that you would likely get it from current ai reasoning models.
Now I'm intrigued. Why not post it publicly?

Reading these have validated some of my points. https://pastebin.com/y1i6KiY1
I don't want to mislead anyone. Neither do I want to cause trouble to myself or to anyone else. Things can be troubling.
I am open to posting it but I would like to discuss it with someone on HN before doing so.
You will also see long term affects in the industry as the pre-AI generation leaves the market.
It was already hard for entry level developers to break the can’t get a job don’t have experience cycle. It is even harder now.
Before there was always some simple busy work that senior developers didn’t have time to do so you would hire a junior level developer who needed to be told exactly what to do. LLMs are already as competent as a junior developer. Why hire them?
I see the next level of hallowing out to be mid level experienced “ticker takers” who just take well defined business use cases off the board and do the work. For non software companies, a lot of that work has already been outsourced to SaaS offerings where businesses hire a consulting company to do the implementation (various ERPs, EHR/EMR systems, Salesforce, ServiceNow, etc)
Consolidation of power.
How would that look like? And what would be the societal implications?
That will get worse when you need fewer non seniors
Well the most pressing question is whether it will kill us all. There are good reasons to suspect that; Nick Bostrom's Superintelligence: Paths, Dangers, Strategies (2014) remains my favorite introduction to this thorny problem, especially the chapter called "Is the Default Outcome Doom?" Whether LLMs are sufficient for artificial superintelligence (ASI) is of course also an open question; I'm actually inclined to sa…
Sam will promise in 2035 that AGI is very close and probably will happen at the end of the year, same as every year (Elon als still promises FSD is close and probably comes out EOY, just that FSD might actually be realistic by then). People use AI a little here and there but nothing much will have changed due to it. Mostly more work for people needing to correct AI mistakes.
Students in school even post ChatGPT let alone better “AI” will find their growth limited. They will never learn how to solve complex math or logic problems or how to write. You will also see long term affects in the industry as the pre-AI generation leaves the market.
