Doubtless they had a lot of redundant programmers just biding time before retirement. Still though - yeah it’s over.

They always offshore things while saying it’s “automation.”

And that’s if you don’t get fired because ChatGPT is cheaper and faster.

For these jobs they probably won't even import many new jeets they will have jeets in India doing stuff instead

The new model is one barely human India jeet running a bunch of AI agents and paying him like 2 dollars an hour or whatever the prevailing wage is in jeetland

a) this is just headline bait since 30-40% of the staff being devs is standard for large tech cos

b) that being said, we are, of course, done here. but I'm sure AI is mostly smoke and mirrors since this has been conventional xo wisdom.
