Surely there are some insanely smart people amongst the 100s of thousands of laid off supposedly god tier software engineers and adjacent who will start new companies maybe even spawn a new industry?

Feels like a problem that will solve itself. There are more cars today than people ever had horses.

Cars were more efficient horses. AI is not more efficient people. It's an excuse to reduce payroll. Capital is fundamentally antagonistic to labor, because labor is an eternal cost center that until AI, never had a solution.

Really? I mean to be honest you can do a lot more with less people now with AI.

I’ve worked with many mids but most people were really good. They’re all even better now.

In both technical and non technical roles.

I think people who are average skill at their jobs are about to be rocked if I’m honest.
