    Imagine if all the meth in the world disappeared tomorrow, then what would you do?

    … learn to make meth? Demand would be through the roof.

    I’ve been a software engineer for 15 years. For the first 13, I was just paid to sit quietly at my desk waiting for Claude Code to be invented.

    AI lords imagine every occupation involves using AI all the time.

    There’s literally no AI involved in welding shop, except my bosses Asshole Intelligence

      Apparently one of the big places it’s found a home is the business consultancy firms. You know, the ones that get paid millions to produce slide decks that say things about “developing synergistic relationships to increase profitability”. Reason is because it allows “leads” to produce all that crap themselves without a huge team of idiot underlings. No change in quality because it was all bullshit anyway.

      So now KPMG or PWC or whoever, is going into boardrooms as waxing lyrical on how AI cuts your wage bill. They can’t imagine going back.

    If all the meth in the world disappeared tomorrow? Well, I’d cook meth, of course – prices should be great now that all the competition is gone and addicts still want it!

    Lol AI has made some things faster for me but I still know the OG way of researching.

    This is kind of like saying if your bicycles suddenly got taken away, you can’t get to work by walking.
