The problem isn't necessarily the workers, the problem is management. It's an extension of class warfare. Copying an old comment of mine

I left one of the big tech companies this year. AI perverted absolutely everything. The only thing worse than vibe code is having to maintain someone else's vibe code on a codebase you spent the last 7 years nursing. Vibe code is absolute trash, but it's management's shiny new toy so they make it everyone's problem.

Expectations changed because of it. A project that would normally take 3 months to plan and implement was expected in a week, quality be damned. We racked up over 500 bugs in a year for a different unreleased application. I would get deadlines in the middle of my vacation days.

And I haven't even gotten to the moral and humanitarian issues

Honestly, that's the most amazing revelation here. Turns out there's no human reviewing what the agent does, and no testing environment to make sure stuff that gets pushed to prod is even minimally working.

They do, but they have another AI agent in charge of reviewing and submitting the code for production.
