I disagree. I've made quite a few things with AI and improved others. I performed testing and it works. While I'm not drinking the Kool-aid that Victor is, he is correct on 1 thing. AI is here to stay and either we well evolve with it or get left behind.
@ah did this person tell the audience about his recent book?
I dont think anyone is excited. Nobody wants to see jobs eliminated.
I'll be more specific for people that browse this outside of Tech and don't know what this is referring to. Victor is the CTO and today the office of CTO had an All Hands in Pgh. In that meeting Victor spoke about the importance of evolving our roles, rather than sit around and worry that we're all marching towards elimination. He used the intro of MS Excel back in the 80s and how everyone was saying the same things back then, but we still have accountants today... Basically in a nutshell what he said about AI was let's continue to evolve with it.
Personally what I didn't like was him referring to his own usage and saying things like "I'm coding this", "I'm creating this". And I dislike that because you're not coding, and you're not creating. You're telling a program what to do and they're feeding you back something that's probably not even that accurate.
That's all I have to say. Otherwise I thought it was a pretty informative all hands. I've seen worse.
