It's gratifying to see my insights about the #techEconomy—especially #ITlayoffs in #cybersecurity and #softwareDevelopment partly driven by the current #AI hype cycle—amplified by peers & media.
"AI can't support what it doesn't know," says James Stanger, the chief technology evangelist at CompTIA, a nonprofit trade association for the US IT industry…"If you've got toxic companies that are interested in that binge-and-purge, on-and-off hiring of developers, I'm not sure they're going to create very good products." (Hoover)
It supports my own #codingAI #metrics that show a human solving a problem the AI never completed even with 400% more time & expert prompting. Confirmation bias? Possibly. Feeling seen & heard? You bet!
