alt Hacker NewsI was saying that AI is going to make software development cheaper as in the salaries of software engineers will go down because some of that salary will now be redirected to AI companies and the fact that the world will need to absorb twice-(x10?) the amount of the development power.
its not obvious to me that salaries go down, my hunch was that salaries go up but the bar is higher. Software becoming easier to produce (still hard to verify and make useful fwiw) raises the ambitions of software projects, and we don't seem to be close to the ceiling of demand for software systems
