that article says

"Read that again. The AI helped build itself.

This isn't a prediction about what might happen someday. This is OpenAI telling you, right now, that the AI they just released was used to create itself."

which is conflating horsesh*t

No it's not :russ: which is the real reason people are being laid off, to offset the massive investments these corporations have sunk into AI.

Watch the head count of these companies laying off massive numbers of people in the next 18-36 months, watch them explode again. There are so many examples of poorly vibe coded software, frameworks and tools out there.

A massive vulnerability is going to be exploited in a heavily AI developed piece of software or platform and it's going to scare the sh*t out of the industry and the hiring will pick back up.

AI isn't ready to take over moderate to high skill level jobs.

The Plain Dealer, Cleveland’s largest newspaper, has begun to feature a new byline. On recent articles about an ice carving festival, a medical research discovery and a roaming pack of chicken-slaying dogs, a reporter’s name is paired with the words “Advance Local Express Desk.” It means: This article was drafted by artificial intelligence.

“This article was produced with assistance from AI tools and reviewed by Cleveland.com staff,” reads a note at the bottom of each robot-penned piece, differentiating it from those still written primarily by journalists. The disclosure has done little to stem the backlash that caromed across the news industry after the paper’s editor, Chris Quinn, published a Feb. 14 column lamenting that a fresh-out-of-college job applicant withdrew from a reporting fellowship when they found out the position included no writing — just filing notes to an AI writing tool.
“Artificial intelligence is not bad for newsrooms. It’s the future of them,” Quinn wrote, adding that “by removing writing from reporters’ workloads, we’ve effectively freed up an extra workday for them each week.”
On social media, industry veterans recoiled at the sentiment. Former Financial Times editor Lionel Barber called it “beyond dumb.” Axios reporter Sam Allard defended the applicant for “wanting to be a journalist instead of an AI content farmer.” HuffPost editor Philip Lewis wrote, “An editor for a newspaper encouraging ‘removing writing from reporters’ workloads’ should just resign.”

As once-robust metropolitan newspapers across the country lay off reporters, shutter bureaus and scale back ambitions, the 184-year-old Plain Dealer, known online as Cleveland.com, is at the forefront of an industry-wide push to reimagine journalism for the AI age. Outlets such as the New York Times, the Financial Times and The Washington Post have begun to incorporate the technology into parts of their journalism and experiment with interactive chatbots. But industry experts said the Plain Dealer’s use of AI to write entire news articles takes the paper into mostly uncharted territory.
Several current and former Plain Dealer staffers, most of whom spoke on the condition of anonymity for fear of retribution, said in interviews that Quinn’s AI initiatives have caused consternation within the newsroom. “It’s existential,” one said about the push to adopt the technology, referring to a fear of technology automating the work of journalists. “You see your own mortality in this.”

Breh the companies have structured the deals in such a way that the "investments" don't even really show up on the corporate balance books. This is why the stocks continue to climb and why openai continues to be able to raise money at valuations approaching 1 trillion. AI may not be taking over high skill jobs, but ultimately those jobs represent a much smaller percentage of the total workforce. It is absolutely taking over many entry level positions - and in areas where the tech is more than likely going to continue improving. The money from all of these jobs not being filled will continue to fuel profits.

in the USA or globally? given that the US is the center of AI capital investment, any "AI washing" should be more pronounced there.

what "tech"? :camby: what is this assumption based on? the "improvements" in blockchain / the previous tech hype?

"largest"? are they though? is tesla really "larger" than mercedes benz?

And as I mentioned a while back, because they dominate the economy, they're able to push these products onto the market whether people really want it or not. This is what's happening with Microsoft CoPilot etc.

what's really happening with windows 11 though.
