I work in a company where we are all senior engineers and they tripled the workforce in the last year! Wait!? How is this possible? Well… there is a catch: It’s not AI, it’s us: est Europeans. Living in this senior engineering paradise that is gaining momentum into the est European market of highly skilled professionals… …I started to believe that AI alone stealing your jobs is the biggest lie today industry is playing it’s overpaid western workers. Most western senior engineering jobs today are not just disappearing. They are migrating in cheaper EU jurisdictions. … while the ones targeted to beginners, middle or mediocrity are moving to Asian countries. I believe they call this AI just to attract more investors money. It is highly probable same group of investors are earning money multiple ways by manipulating the stock market, firing expensive people, hiring cheaper ones and lowering IT wages in the same time. Someday the financial .ai bubble (because the tech is legit just the money they get out of it is a big lie) will burst and reveal the ugly truth behind: AI is just a hammer for Indians and est Europeans to do your jobs at 30% your price. For each senior job you lose there is an est European celebrating being hired :) PS: the funny part is the same is happening to our beginners and intermediate. They can’t easily find a job anymore because they moved those low grade jobs to Asia. submitted by /u/dowhile0
