I’m sure they’d love to try, though. It reminds me of the trend of offshore outsourcing, where executives were so excited that they might be able to replace their costly employees with something cheaper, so they could keep more money for shareholders and themselves. And you know, fuck their former employees. After a ton of investment and disruption while they experimented with offshore outsourcing, for the most part, as far as for programming anyway, they figured out that hiring a bunch of 19 year-old kids in India was not the same as having someone more lexperienced in the same country to it. There were all sorts of problems with interpreting specs, security, coordination across time zones, and so on. They backed away, but not before they’d fired tens of thousands of people and disrupted their lives. I can picture AI going the same way.
