Get ready for a bunch of unskilled people making the shittiest apps imaginable.

And I wonder how easy it will be to get Claude to create malware with just a few prompts…

    Should be a nice salary boost for developers in a year or two when all these companies desperately need to rehire to fix whatever AI slop mess they have created.

    And I hope every developer demands 2x their current salary if they are tasked with re-engineering that crap.

      Like when they stopped trying to Outsource to India or other places where the labor was extremely cheap. But all the code that came back from it was useless and had to be Rewritten by the remaining software engineers still at the company anyway. They’ll never learn. They’ll simply find a new anti-worker efficiency to Chase.

        But during a shory period of time,managers could force workers to stay late and overwork themselves without pushback.

      I’d go further and demand that the team I’m hired for re-write the app completely and not just re-engineer it from the AI slop codebase.

          You sunk cost fallacy, plus even worse is the unknown unknowns buried in a codebase no current dev (human or not) built.
