I would, but now there's free LLM's that can do what I do literally for free and 1000x faster.
Past that, I have no marketable skills that a modern LLM doesn't also have, and better. I very much doubt I'm alone in this. Between now and say, two to five years tops, my employers will know it too.
File LLMs under "confidently doing it wrong". They don't know anything, they just parrot what was scraped off the internet
Not disagreeing, but what does that help the thousands who will still lose their jobs regardless?
It doesn't.
Unionize. Individually your power to change things is weak, together your power is strong. The only thing power listens to is a greater power and the reality is that your bosses likely rely on you more than you rely on them.
I guarantee you do have useful skills and that they are better than what an LLM can produce. Don't listen to the hype that will be used to justify taking your ability to live from you in exchange for higher profits.
