Do you feel like also that we have progressed extremely fast in last 5 years? I have been alive for many years, but the last 5 years, in terms of software development, effect of softwares in engineering (of all kinds) and other disciplines, was extremely revolutional. How are we going to handle it? I am not a software developer, but an engineer. And every second I don’t run Claude to do something, I feel like a lost. Then, I think about younger engineers who are born into this system, and I cannot imagine what they will be missing and what they will achieve with this new methods. If I could, I would slow it down, but capitalism will not allow us to slow it down. That was always the case. Go as fast as you can, as long as you can. I would slow it down, not because of the fear of new technology, but we should just digest some of these new things. Even the universities should be adjusted with reduced number of students in some, changed curriculums etc, but we cannot do that as fast as the AI development. These are slow running systems. So, right now, we have double reality in the industry. There is the majority that works old way , old being 5 years ago. And there is a minority that develops the next tools, doing the work of majority does by much less manpower. We are not doomed. But this double reality will bite us. It might be another financial crisis or something similar. Again, capitalism always fails, but always gets back up. submitted by /u/2020NoMoreUsername
