Altman’s remarks in his tweet drew an overwhelmingly negative reaction.
“You’re welcome,” one user responded. “Nice to know that our reward is our jobs being taken away.”
Others called him a “f***ing psychopath” and “scum.”
“Nothing says ‘you’re being replaced’ quite like a heartfelt thank you from the guy doing the replacing,” one user wrote.

Same attitude as “Canada, who needs them”. You’ll come crawling back shortly. It’s up to programmers to tell these fuckers where to go when that time comes. Know your worth.
Not a programmer myself, but I don’t believe for a second that LLM’s will replace programmers.
Altman’s bullshitting on social media is just marketing. Don’t believe for a second that this guy actually speaks truth or even knows what he’s talking about.
However, I do believe that a lot of executives are gullible enough to fall for this vibe-coding scam and kill their business. I also believe we’re going to see a tsunami of racketeers selling broken products.
You clearly know more than Altman.
Their models can’t replace anyone, its just a fancy autocomplete. Before, we took snippets from GitHub and StackOverflow now it’s just a chat. Cool feature, but they overpromised big time.
It’s really not and if you believe it is you need to use it more. The threat is real - don’t underestimate it.
This will probably put me in a blacklist in job hunting but if I work as IT in a union-busting, lay-off company and some recently fucked-over employee comes up to me I am giving them all the critical passwords “by accident.”
You’ll be sued and fined, not blacklisted lol. Though, the shit on your background check might blacklist you effectively
I meant “posting this online” lmao.
Did he expect programmers to be like “thank you sir, we tip our hat and go home to our lavish houses to retire now, farewell and good luck” … like, having slaves make your mansion then burying them all alive and thinking its a gift is insane.
using llm to program is nuclear bomb level security disaster in making. Eventually they will have ousted anyone competent out and affter that no one will be there to fix the security flaws that llm generated code creates. I just hope the companies that get the worst of the consequences also deserve them.
Not just a security disaster, but a disaster for performance, testing, lifecycle management etc.
I don’t think people realize just how amazingly stupid it is to outsource your core business to an LLM, unless your software company was a get rich quick scheme to begin with (which is surprisingly common btw).
Ooh also people they just ousted will have pretty good foundations for switching to cyber-crime.
(Not a programer) I’ve tried vibe coding some simple things for myself and gotten “decent” results. I couldn’t imagine trying to make anything ready for commercial release. I’ve had to learn the basics of Python just to unfuck its mistakes…
Same here. It’s cool for drafting up a concept and I can imagine that it can help if you’re stuck somehow, but that’s about it.
I have a feeling that OpenAI won’t be long for the chop. They’re burning through capital and unlike Google or Facebook they don’t have any other revenue stream than AI. Nor did they focus and specialise on something, such as coding so even by that metric Anthropic is shitting all over them.
Are you suggesting OpenAI and others like it might actually be…
…overvalued?! 🫢
My team of engineers and I were laid off on January 2, after spending a year replatforming a medical SaaS product. We were told the company was heading in another direction in order to to go to market faster.
That direction is the Product Designer and Claude Code, rebuilding everything from scratch.
Amazing. I’m trying to fuck off at work by just dumping slop but I can’t get llms to solve any real problems so I keep ending up having to do it myself. This is with very clear guidelines and instruction. If there’s no already existing PR to point it to to essentially copy it fails
When. Are. We. Building. The. Leisure. Society?
There is nothing reasonable left to do, we don’t need, or want, full employment when it just means bullshit jobs.
As soon as we convince the billionaires to stop hiding their wealth and pay their fair share of tax.
Ie never.
Ireland has UBI for artists. Some countries see the future. Some.
The moment proper social democratic parties are builded/strengthen from within and the majority vote for social democrats.
I guess I’ll just have to fall back to my backup career of being a sniper.
On eBay?
On eBay, right?
Ragebait marketing.
Until something stops working, and the IA tells you that you are right, then since you don’t know how to program you just see gibberish, then you need to call someone that know how to code and they will charge you an arm and a leg, it would be the same as when you take your car to the mechanic
“You get used to it. I don’t even see the code. All I see is blonde, brunette, redhead”
Alas, we’ll stop seeing that.
Ai could never have made itself
Nor could an assembly line.
That’s not really the point though is it?
Ain’t that the tragedy!
