My experience has been slightly different. AI seems to be leveling the playing field, just like how google maps flattened the field allowing all and sundry to become cab drivers in any city. Knowing all the city routes, traffic choke points etc. is no longer a "skill". I am now seeing previously clueless Indian developers, delivering not so bad software solutions, obviously with copious help from AI (Claude code in our specific case). The result? More software development/testing jobs are moving to India, thanks to AI. Anyone retiring or leaving the org for whatever reason, is being replaced by an Indian. While there is a hiring freeze in the western hemisphere (thankfully no layoffs yet).

Thanks!

Exactly! Why would anyone even bother to write any "human readable" program. All _most_ programs do is swallow some data, transform it in some way and then output some data for humans, who still have a job, to see. You can teach AI to perform that same transformation on the input data, using the same Algorithms.
But:
- Does AI offer repeatability? If I have taught it one transformation, is it guaranteed that it will exactly repeat that transformation again and again. After a million times? I have seen the same prompt generating quite different results at different times. Compiling prompts to regenerate software could break for the same reason. Every regeneration will require a ton of testing and validation.
- There are those programs, such as the ones that control an Aircraft, or other mission critical applications. Can AI generate the signals required by hardware at the right rates? What if it pauses a bit to scratch its head? These programs are typically formally verified too. With no programing languages, what's to prove their correctness?
- And many other cases... such as those involving money, transactions, trades etc.

For simple things like, fetching data to plot sales figures, applying for a day off at work, searching and ordering groceries from an eDatabase etc. I can see your point.

Ever since I was forced to downgrade from Windows 10 to Windows 11, my laptop has been running very hot. The fan is screaming all the time. I have heard this from many other users too. Are they going to fix this?

Does that mean its perfectly legal to copy AI generated music and movies? That's good news for all the AI companies.

Why not? She is a Deepak Chopra fan. He spews BS all of the time. Few years ago, there was a similar research item here on /. that specifically was about Deepak Chopra and folks who see profoundness in his BS, their low IQ levels and all that.

They are playing what's called "the word of the day", while pretending to be working. Matter of fact, I enjoy playing this game and others too. Why not? I get paid for it.

Spend 22 months in jail with free food and what not if caught and pay only $50,000. After wiring $5 million That's a sweet deal! Many would be tempted to go this route. Especially when getting jobs is becoming harder.

Nope, I did the math. Jews stayed there for more time than the cumulative time spent by other ethnicities.

Sure. Humans are currently busy lobbing explosive stuff at one another in the name of fantasy stories invented by scheming "messengers of dog".

In India public sector employees cannot be fired. Unless they have committed grave crimes. Event then it is very tough to fire a public sector.employee. They can only be suspended from their job for a brief period, with half the wages and no work.

I don't think AI with all its smarts is going to destroy humanity. Humans believing the word of dumb AI will destroy themselves.

That's incorrect. Most Iranians are Muslim. Almost all. They are Shia Muslims though. While the rest of the Muslims all over the world are Sunni. Shia and Sunnis are kind of enemies. Because those who murdered Muhammad's (their prophet) family became the Sunnis. And those that sided with the prophet's family became Shia. So Iranian muslims don't care about Palestine problem because they are Sunni. But for some very bizarre reason, both Khomeini and Khamenie deeply cared about the Palestinian problem. Perhaps born out of the deep inferiority complex, since they are the only Shia nation in the world. They probably want to show how "superior" Shias are by solving the Palestinian problem, that the Sunnis couldn't solve.

May be you folks should give it back. That's up to you folks. I don't know how you feel about it. But the Jews took their lands back and are the current owners. May be someday the native Indians might try to do it as well. If they do, I don't think I would call it "displacement".

Yes, the history of the place is in fact very old.

For more than 2 thousand years those lands belonged to Jews. Then Babylonians took the lands from the Jews and destroyed their temple. Then Persians took the lands when it came under Cyrus. Cyrus was liberal and allowed the Jews to construct the temple. Then it came under the Romans who destroyed the temple (which is where the al-aqsa mosque stands now). Then it went to Umar, who built a muslim structure that would eventually become the mosque. Under islamic rule, the Jews were persecuted, outcast from Jerusalem, made to pay jizya for being non-muslim. Many jews moved to other countries, including Persia (Iran). After being persecuted everywhere, they moved back to their original land.

That's the very high-level picture I got.

"native Muslims"
Nope, they are not native. Muslims conquered those lands from the Jews during the reign of Umar. Those lands belonged to Jews for more than 2 thousand years before the Muslims came there.
