Actually its good for those forgotten hw to code. Can give u idea how to code the function. Sometimes the code cannot compile due to they din indicate to include libraries.

Still, the coder him/herself mus noe the skill to code. If some salesman tell u AI can code everything, u noe he smoking you liao.

Many ai video jus wana get hits for viewing. The whole things still need to coder to compile.

Unless 1 day AI can code the whole visual studio or windows 11. Then i would say its ready.

But microsoft would not want tat to happen 1 day cos it will break its own ricebowl.

Jus take AI as pinch of salt then u ok liao.

SME boss will tell you AI can code. Give you job for $2500, better take. Else might as well ask AI do.

I see it as job reduction. Can't see AI replace totally. My HR, finance all still have jobs for eg. Even friend in another design company no designers got fired, and they use AI.

Big tech maybe over hired during covid.
It will impact the entry level jobs for now, hr, finance etc. don't think anyone is spared.

But in future everyone will be affected

The biggest problem is the same group of has been : HR

Doing whatever it takes to low-ball and then say can't find locals and go with AI


And I don't mean artificial intelligence

They are habitually gossiping and doing the same process yet screwups between management and employees is always sided with company without proper security, legal or 3rd party in biased input for any problems
