The same people that are saying AI is going to take over all coding jobs are the same ones that were saying ten years ago that self driving cars were going to be everywhere in five years.

I’m a network engineer and explain my job to people who don’t understand as an internet plumber, lol.

Computers, code, machine learning, and by extension AI and robotics needs standardization
Totally agree, which is why I never really understood the "AI is coming, better learn how to weld" stuff. I would say 90% of jobs aren't to the level of standardization needed for AI. Unless you're a cashier or warehouse grunt AI isn't coming for your job anytime soon

I agree, but what exactly can a plumber do that a robot couldn't be built/taught to do?
Computer vision, robotics, AI, and a lot of other fields all have a *long* way to go before we have robot plumbers. At least robot plumbers that work the way plumbers currently work. It would be an easier (cheaper) problem to solve if we would re-engineer plumbing altogether with robot plumbers in mind. New materials, joints, fixtures, standardized plumbing methods, all of that redesigned to make the job of the robots easier.

AI will replace a lot of coding. We have already incorporated an AI bot into some of what we are doing. It will dramatically increase.
This is certainly true, but the code itself still needs to be corrected in most cases. It saves a ton of time but a human who is highly competent needs to proof it.
I would equate it to using google translate. Yes it is mostly right, but if you don’t have someone who speaks the language proofing the finished product you will look like an idiot.

I work with a shite ton of offshore developers, they require you to tell them exactly what to do all day. It's actually more efficient for me to just ignore them and do it myself.
The biggest challenge in managing offshore devs is figuring out WTF to do with them. The second biggest challenge is keeping management from hiring a bunch more of them in an attempt to hurry things along.

Problem is, too many baristas that had no business learning code signed up for bootcamps and are now useless.
Yeah, coding bootcamps are dead. The job placement rates are horrendous now.

It’s a crying shame that there’s humans out there that are so blind to their own divinity. For all of our faults and tribulations, you were given the keys to the kingdom and the universe, yet you’re willing to piss it all away for convenience. The human mind combined with the human hand and THUMB is unmatched.
The INSANE complexity of the human hand.

I remember the old saying learn to code duh!
Now it will be don't learn to code duh!

Laziness.

What does the last line mean? It’s worded strangely.
Does this mean economics as a subject has value to help businesses navigate these changes, or does it mean we need less of it along with other scientific subjects?

Similarly, education needs to offer flexibility, and less scientific subjects (including, of course, economics) may be more important in creating future economic success.

Nothing. The same goes for wealth managers.

Replace “plumber” with “drivers” and ask a Tesla FSD engineer this question.
Seeing, identifying and properly acting on objects in the real world is really complicated…we just don’t realize how complicated it is because humans do this intuitively shortly after they’re born.

Or maybe just fix the inefficiency that is a biological being that creates such waste.

I was reading on a group on Facebook how cabinet builders are charging $1000 per LF in some areas and have a year-long wait list. For comparison, you can get RTA cabinets for about $130 per LF, and Kraftmaid ordered from Home Depot for $180 to $500 per LF depending.
Been going that way for a while now. When I worked as a trim carpenter, the higher end homes would have custom cabinets built by a shop in East Texas and delivered in. At the time there just wasn't a local shop that could build decent cavinets. Now there several but even with the increased supply prices have shot up. The garbage sold at box stores isn't fit for mobile homes. I've invested in some new tools to start building my own cabinets and doors now. I'm not saving any money but I certainly wont have stuff that will fall apart in a few years.

You've read too many sci-fi books or seen too many sci-fi movies lol
