GPT-4 Was Released 3 Weeks Ago and 48% of Surveyed Companies Have Started Replacing Workers

This will work well with software development by taking out the drudgery involved with actual documentation at least.  That alone allows for a high level of destaffing.

The problem in passing knowledge on to others is not doing a precis of someone elses opinions  It is snythesizing your own opinion and passing that forward.  There i am unconvinced.

Now we will likely get the bizarre world of AI books without authers charm, wit and oblique observation.  So how do we get to read massive books with the erudation of a computer software manual?
