alt Hacker NewsIt's like the entire software industry is gambling on "LLMs will get better faster than human skills will decay, so they will be good enough to clean up their own slop before things really fall apart".
I can't even say that's definitely a losing bet-- it could very well happen-- but boy does it seem risky to go all-in on it.

Some of the heads like Altman seem to be putting all their chips in the "AGI in [single-digit number] years" pile.
On one hand, it’s extremely tiring having to put up with that section of our industry.
On the other, if a large portion of the industry goes all in, and it _doesn’t_ pay off and craters them, maybe the overhyping will move onto something else and we can go back to having an interesting, actually-nice-to-be-in-industry!
