    I think Jenny K should do this.

    Her essay is almost unreadable. Please tell me how you think a recent college grad, probably with school loans, is supposed to pay for their own “on the job training”? I’d love to see your magical economics at work.

    So I’m not gonna lie this kind of makes sense… If you don’t consider where the money comes from in the first place…

    Excuse me, haven’t we already seen tech companies going back to using junior programmers and boilerplate code because the LLM tokens are more expensive than just hiring people?

      Not really no. There might’ve been few outliers.

      Companies are trying to spend their money more efficiently right now (as in, “make the genie work peasants, but for pennies”).

      Source: ehh, I still work for one.

      That’s why taxpayers are paying for massive data centres that poison their neighbourhoods.

      More data centres means token become cheaper and more jobs get replaced.

      Tax payers literally paying to reduce the number of jobs for their children to work in the future.

    Good luck finding the future mid-level class of your company when all the lower rungs are filled with AI. Who you going to promote? AI Albert?

    There is something rotten about that writing. I can’t read the drivel more than a paragraph at a time. It is like every sentence should have it’s own paragraph and the missing sentences have left the flow of thought all fucked up. I have spent plenty of time around cokeheads and such and their train of thought takes the scenic route compared to this crazy train.

    And how will these promising new “HOTL” have money to pay for entry level jobs without having entry level jobs?

        Probably to differentiate it from hardware in the loop, which is what HITL typically refers to. That or she’s just not very good at this. Probably the second one.

        How much experience do you have dating? You might need to pay her for the opportunity. Why should she date you instead of AI?

        Then strangle and ditch in the woods? (In Minecraft of course)

        This shit is very dehumanizing.

          Cynical maybe. It isn’t like this is what she wants. She just sees it coming. I happen to see her assessment as valid.

          Do I want it? Fuck no. So take action before her premonition comes true.

    No evidence, just mindless opinions based on nothing.

    Here’s my take: In the future, Tomatoes will become sentient from genetic engineering and will wish to overthrow their masters. Only gen z, alpha and AI will be able to stop this…Attack of the Killer Tomatoes. I’m smart and realistic.

    Hungary already has internships with “reverse salaries”, thanks to corruption and mandatory internships, though many instead moved onto the “pay us back the salary and your training cost if you dare to not work for us for two years after graduation, for peanuts” model.
