  • I got offered to train AI too, tried it and hated it.

    The pay was similar to my day job, but it was the most boring and tedious job I’ve done as a software developer without ANY other benefits of working for a company.

    Plus I was selling my YEARS worth of studying and gained knowledge and experience for what I realised are peanuts, because once I’m replaced by the AI I trained, I won’t have earned enough money to last me till my end of days, but these fucking billionaires will be making billions from that, while I sit jobless.

    I closed my account a couple of days later.

    In July, its cloud computing unit cut at least hundreds of jobs — and perhaps more — following a warning from CEO Andy Jassy that the adoption of generative AI would lead to layoffs.

    “As we roll out more Generative AI and agents, it should change the way our work is done,” Jassy said in a note to employees in June, per Reuters. “We will need fewer people doing some of the jobs that are being done today, and more people doing other types of jobs.”

    Haa ha. Fucking idiots.
