2 hours agoWhen I see “hallucination” I think “glitch”, because from a developer POV that’s what it is. Something din’ go right. I don’t think being a particular type of software merits renaming glitches. As for “sycophantasy?” (gimme a break) I would call that word a ridiculous brain fart.
Whoever keeps telling you humans are non longer necessary will be hiring back the developers they replaced with AI, if they haven’t already. AI, when used well, makes coding more efficient and can thus reduce headcount - assuming the organization actually does use it well, which the industry overall hasn’t learned to do yet. The present employment problem isn’t caused by AI, it’s caused by management incompetence. At some point the AI craze should settle back down to something resembling rationality.
As far as qualifications my guess is anything that implies analytical skills and system-level thinking. Valued experience would be examples of observing a situation, breaking down it into components, characterizing problems, and defining what’s needed to build solutions. At this point (in the software world) you could lay out the problem for an AI assistant to write code. And you still need coding skills to assess the results. Managers - who are traditionally not the brains of any outfit - are slowly (as usual) figuring out that these are the skills they need to hire to create effective code.
