It's good at replacing junior engineers across the industry!

When there's a shortage across all sectors in 10 years all these CEOs will wondee why that is, when they've only been hiring people with 10+ years of experience since before OpenAI was a company.

It's also made academia worthless. The junior engineers we do hire are grossly incompetent. Whenever you ask them to research something they'll send you a copy-paste from ChatGPT where they obviously just pasted your question into the prompt. Asking them to edit a report is also just thrown onto an LLM, pasting the output with m-dashes and all.

They can only be blamed for so much though, academia in Amerikkka turned into just an obstacle to enter the workforce (in my opinion, just a barrier of entry to keep poor people poor while the rich can afford to purchase their "qualifications".)

There was a whole scandal at my state college because professors would not fail students, making it functionally a classist pipeline in which having the means to pay for an education is really the only requirement to get a job in STEM. Most of the students don't have an interest in the subjects they're studying, they only do it for the ability to get a cushy job.
