Is this actually happening? I would think most tech leaders are not stupid enough to let the most capable reviewers of AI slop get fired first. I think in most case it will translate to a reduction of hiring rather than firing anyone skilled enough to correct AI output.
Maybe. Maybe Sr Dev uses their connections to help Jr Dev look for a better job (assuming they like Jr Dev, maybe they look together) and one day Jr Dev helps them back. You never know.
That is, until Sr. Dev is forced to babysit AI producing PR slop all day while Jr. Dev is looking for a new job.
Wrong
We fire the Sr Dev and get the cheaper Jr Dev to oversee the AI
The Jr Dev is worse at the job than AI. We get the cheaper AI to oversee the Jr Dev

But according to LinkedIn we’re all too crazy about AI to care about Jr Dev if we can have fun with AI. We’re all having a ton of fun using AI, right?
yes. tons. of. fon. 👏.👏.
What would be your favorite most fun part about AI? Mine is constant sorrow, face palming and existential crisis ever since management heard of it.
