That was the guy that later asked (on X?) for people to send in CVs and recent works, right? Must have been going really well for him 😄
Edit:
Yep, that is him:
The tweet read, “I fired my entire dev team. Replaced them with O1, Lovable, and Cursor. Now I ship 100X faster with code that’s 10X cleaner. Open AI o3 is coming, and 90% of dev jobs won’t survive.”
But, would you believe it, Winder later took to LinkedIn to announce that he needed web developers to join his company. This disparity invited a lot of derision, the Reddit post even having nearly 10K upvotes and comments. Another raged: So he is saying his company is an unneeded greed mongrel milking a simple interaction between his clients and OpenAI! Another said, “I just say AI to do it all.” But can’t someone else just tell AI to do everything? You don’t understand. I meet with the clients! I’m a people person, dammit!”
I’ve replaced my workforce with AI. I’ve replaced my clients with AI. I’ve replaced my office with AI. I’ve replaced myself with AI. Even this post is procedurally generated.
I am no more. I am gone. Only AI now. AI is coming. Bleep bloop Mr. Anderson.
^ actual true goal of hyper capitalism
Reminds me of Stanislaw Lem’s book Peace On Earth, where all the super powers fight a proxy war on the moon with robots to have “peace on earth”. Maybe we can have a proxy AI economy on the moon and have peace from capitalism. Although, it didn’t really turn out to be a good idea in the book.
That sounds like an interesting read! Is it part of a series or could it be read independently? I tried to find out online but I got seemingly conflicting results.
I think the hero is a recurring character in unrelated books. His stuff is pretty wild.
The Butlerian Jihad will be a mercy when it comes.
Thou shalt not make a machine in the likeness of a human mind
The best part is that there’s no chance that code is “cleaner”. Just another tech bro who thinks he’s figured out the matrix.
LOL sure buddy, sure…
And then all the users clapped.
