> They things I’ve had it do with me are mind blowing, my guess is the people who understand it and how to leverage it will increase their own productivity so much that it will reshape economies and put many people out of work that don’t learn how to use it.

This is the kind of hyper sensationalism that I'm talking about. Do you really believe that, or is this you extrapolating to what could be possible in the future if the technology keeps improving? I feel like that is where a lot of the arguments always ended up with crypto advocates as well, if you had doubts or questions about how big of paradigm shift this was going to be for the world, you just didn't get it yet because you couldn't connect the dots this early on.

I'm not doubting that the tool is useful, or that ChatGPT is quite an accomplishment, but I just don't see it "reshaping economies" anytime soon.

I don’t just believe it I already see it happening directly. I have made changes in hiring strategies and employment situations based on massive increases in productivity from using LLMs.

The difference in productivity of developers that embrace the new tools vs those who don’t is very obvious in my opinion. It’s probably the next 18-24 months when the impact becomes more obvious on larger scales.

Yep totally agreed. I have very junior developers doing complex tasks with the aid of it — for example sql queries , elasticsearch, ansible, react — all without having touched them before
