GPT-4 WILL affect YOUR job - new STUDY released 

so…we’re ok 👍

@@AZisk exactly!!

​​@@AZisk i am afraid not. Because articulation is more about linguistics rather than technicality. People having neck for soft skills will use gpt more efficiently. GPT has not only bridged that gap between waige language to workable code, but concretely bridged it both ways.

Over time it will become much easier to get incredible results with basic prompts or little knowledge. It's already evolved this way just in the last couple of months. This is just the beginning.

😀.. if they can draw, we have done .. lol. who knows what GPT ver 10 will do in 3 years. Making kitchen cabinets is that bad of a job. lol

Not true at all. AI requires human input to create, if anything it's better to think of AI as a personal assistant, not a replacement. Yes it removes a lot of the gruntwork, and yes it can emulate language and communicate tasks. But on a creative level, it hasn't been able to replace meaning and it's biases limit how far it can go. AI for example can emulate Guillermo del Toro, but ask it to create a story that has as much meaning and value as Guillermo del Toro' s work does and it falls short. It works best when you use it to enhance your creativity not create for you without thought. Some game developers are already realizing how great it is for helping speedline concept art creation. It's hype right now for everyone to put headliners "I'm scared of AI" the only thing to really be scared of is AI assisted soldiers, hackers and viruses - now that...that I'm scared of. AI transforming how we work and play, not so much.

@ArtXgX This is just the beginning. AI alpha stages. Anyone saying that AI in the very near future (less than 10 years) can't greatly surpass humans in creativity is just coping. The progress of these models has only gotten faster in the past few months, not to mention the efficiency of training. GPT-4 isn't sentient, but compressing the sum of human knowledge into such a small space does wonders for the ability to string together what most could consider thought.

@@artxgx9245 A replacement for whom, that is the issue. The boss won't need to go, but he'll only need ChatGPT as his personal assistant rather than that junior coder. Or he'll just hire someone very low level to use AI to create code rather than an actual coder.

@@youdontneedmyrealname True, there's a hell of a lot of coping going on in the programming sector. You seem to hear "it's just a tool" so often it ironically sounds like it's bots posting the comments. It's a tool for whom, you the advanced coder with experience in multiple languages, or a tool for a junior coder that only knows javascript.

@@youdontneedmyrealname I think my comment wasn't really clear. I never said it wouldn't surpass humans in creativity. But I am saying - I don't really care? I am excited for this technology, my whole life has been centered around it. I never thought in my lifetime I would see what I am seeing now, and it is happening. I feel, we will adapt to the technology as we did cars, computers and cell phones, this is just another thing to adapt to. Maybe I am biased because I work in the field of A.I both as an artist and a programmer, I run my own company, have already outsourced work to A.I and have seen it increase the productivity of the employees I do want to keep. I believe AI can and will transform society on levels we have never seen, and it is up to us to decide if it will be for better or worse.

This AI campaign is mostly a scare tactic to make people work harder

The way to automate yourself out of a job is to start a business and then automate the business. Becoming good at a job when you work for someone else is just asking to be given more work.

@@shiny_x3 yeah I tried the whole start a business thing. But that's not automating yourself out of a job, it's getting other people to do the work for you so you can sit on your fat ass and use those people, making them do the work while you take their wages. I guess I'm too ethical because I just couldn't do it anymore.

@@shiny_x3 By automate the business, do you mean hire workers to operate it?

It's embarrassing how rare this observation is.

Yeah same, I use it to improve code, like rewrite a function better. You still need the conceptual knowledge but don’t need to be an expert on the specifics of a language. If you understand exactly what you want and can explain it concisely it’s great, surprisingly few people are good at doing that though

So, you're using GPT to handle all that tedious coding work, huh? I get it, it's a game changer and saves you tons of time. But, you know what, be careful, 'cause GPT might just snatch your job away one day! 😜 I mean, think about it: GPT and LLMs are getting smarter and more efficient, and they're only gonna keep improving. If these AI systems keep evolving, they might just be able to do our jobs better than us! Remember when spreadsheets first showed up? That was a big leap, but this... this is on a whole other level. So, sure, enjoy the ride and let GPT handle those scripts and tools for now, but maybe keep an eye out for a backup plan just in case our AI overlords take over. 😉

@@KyleStangline Burying your head in the sand and not using it isn't going to help anyway so may as well use it.

@@KyleStangline I'm not at all worried because the work I do involves more creative thinking than a by-the-book AI can handle. I'm the one asking it to do work for me. Besides that, I'm semi-retired so this will just extend my brain further into the future. 🙂

@@RolandGustafsson I believe you are right on the money. GPT won't be taking away your job unless you are not so good at it. They guys using GPT to best advantage are going to be the guys keeping their jobs - they will generate far more code that is far better. The GPT can't "do" your job, it can only make it faster and better, you are still essential. But once that happens, they (and you) are effectively going to be rendering the lower level grunts expendable, and (as Alex says in the video) in a couple years the company catches on to the fact that dear old Joe is putting out very little code compared to you, and his output is no longer essential - Joe is toast. You stay on at least for this cycle of this merry go round.

@@Cara.314 that's actually a good idea! I could draw something, with all the measures and requirements and ask chatGPT to complete certain parts, or make visual instructions to do what I want.

Once AGI gets developed (AI that is able to improve itself indefinitely), pretty much all physical jobs will unfortunately be replaced as well. Because AI can just create a legion of robots that do the job perfectly. We just gotta wait and see though.

​@@cardinal9009 I still think that the resources used to make these robots means that labour jobs like carpenters will be the last to go. Thoughts?

@@jamesf1935 The thing with AGI is that it is exponential in its improvement. This basically means that all these jobs will be relevant up to the very moment AGI gets invented. After that, with a snap of a fingers pretty much, all jobs will become irrelevant. Because AI thinks much, much faster than we do, and can literally solve all of humanity's problems in a short period if it truly reaches human-level intelligence. Honestly, we just gotta wait and see.

Give it 2-3 years lol

yes, but you will need potentially many fewer of those people. That is what AI automation is. Not full replacement, but reducing the number of workers required drastically.

Improved productivity is the current aim, people who are highly skilled at using the tools to increase their productivity will be the ones in demand and you need to be a pretty high level to be able to use the tools effectively. All the low level jobs are going to be gone over night which begs the question where are all the new people who are highly skilled going to come from. Essentially the AI will gradually take over the whole industry because there won't be anyone coming up though lower grades as they will all be quickly replaced.

@@schrodingerscat1863 Companies have two choices there really: 1. Employ low skill workers in order to train them through having them work with your high-skill workers. These employees will cost you money in the short term, but will allow the industry you work in to continue after your current high-skill workers retire. Companies already do this to some extent, it will simply need to be done on a larger scale (and they'll have the money to pay those people because they have the money to pay those people now - it will simply be the case that AI is doing the work that they would otherwise be doing. The work is still being done, so they still have the money). 2. Give up and hope they can automate the high-skill workers before they retire XD

@@alansmithee419 What do you think they will do, logically they would choose 1 but in reality 9 times out of 10 it will be 2. Management almost never take the long view and are always looking for short term gains to boost their bonuses and look good before bailing for a better position elsewhere.

That is a nice example

exactly. to me chatgpt is like a super stackoverflow on steroids. all the code that chatgpt outputs can be found in forums and stackoverflow, but it will take a while. chatgpt outputs the code much faster. it will help newbie developers and senior developers too, but it wont make a non developer a developer. at least not for now.

just think though in 3 years or less, the end user will give a basic overview, and several ai systems will iterate on the design asking all those 100's of questions automatically until the design requirements are met.

@@TheGothGaming exactly

Yes but in few years, it could do it in fewer and fewer questions.

Maybe GPT15, after 15-20 years it might be possible

@@slaviboy but still I think innovation will always happen in this field as new hardware architecture will come so do new algorithms will be invented which chatgpt is not even trained on yet…

Stanford researchers already managed to train a model similar to GPT3.5 on consumer hardware. These systems will get cheaper and then companies will be able to run and train it on their own hardware.

​@@forben3523 similar... Yeah. The final model use about 70billion parameters. But currently they were able to make 7b one. If they make a 15b available - possibly could run on 8-12gb vram(ram?). The GPT 3.5 is trained on 150b parameters. To run even 70b you still would need a monster PC. Even with current tech improvements - it would be probably an $10-20k computer in 5-10 years to run something on a level of GPT4. I would rather see some models within consumer PC pricing - but specialistic models trained to do specific tasks.

Do. Software engineers only spend a tiny fraction of their time actually coding. That's the part that GPTs may take over. That's also the part that kids learn in school nowadays. In short, the part that GPTs will take away is not what we are being paid for. Unless you plan on becoming the lowest-grade code monkey, but those were never useful to begin with IMO.

Continue to pursue CS. GPT-4 and it’s follow-on will provide better tools for developers. The need for people that both understand the business needs and the existing technology will remain. The tools they use are just getting better. Business owners don’t have time (or interest) in getting into the weeds to solve the business problem - the just want an expert to take care of it. You can be that expert. Learn both CS and Business and you’ll be all set. That’s the sweet-spot.

Study it. No matter what happens you'll always be at an advantage knowing how these things work than not knowing.

funny, i'm more interested in cs than ever before! why not peruse it if you find it interesting?

Following one's own lines of interest to develop skill and expertise can lead to beautiful realities, and beautiful options. Something to ask might be "if I already had made the change or done the thing, would I wish for what I have now instead?" If not, what could possibly be in the way other than cognitive biases?

I'm also interested in this, It's gone very quiet on the quantum computing side, I haven't seen much about it lately

That’s the thing, look at the pace at which AI is progressing, in the past few months it has exploded, and it looks like it will evolve exponentially. All bets are off!

They will not be conscious. Their fundamental processing is entirely different from how humans experience the world. Exponential growth isn't real... that never happens anywhere. We've had exponential growth in hardware for 30 years but our software and capabilities haven't borne out those changes. As systems get more complex at scale, the difficulties with maximizing the resources available. More powerful processors also suck down more energy which is not infinite or cheap. Access to quality data doesn't scale at the same rate that software does... and that doesn't even factor in that as capabilities grow, the problems people apply them to grow as well.

@@nicholasmillington5443 What dimensional issues? As far as I'm aware, these "Attention" based language transformer models are nearly infinitely parallelizable. The denser our computing capability is the exponentially more powerful the A.I can become. So the only limit that I'm aware of is "how big and dense of a server room can we build?"

These idiots at FAANG don't care about anything other than profit. Look at what one of the fathers of AI said about this. He was against AI being developed because he was sure that it would not benefit the poor and it would increase the wage gap and inequality. Soon companies will use GPT4 to carry out any job possible so they don't have to pay people.

It is already here. Lee loo is her name. Lisa Harrison is her game.

Are you talking about GPT-4 or the old chatGPT?

@@nicolassanchez8754 Easy, they don’t care. That’s all.

So how many people do you think? 20k? 30k people?

Bring it on, I've been using Google effectively for 10 years to program, whats another search engine?

But less of them will be needed to complete same or even greater work. Most pressing question is: how companies will deal with explosion in productivity: fire workers to keep the status quo for cheaper or to expand to horizon never possible before maintaining the costs. I would guess most will choose the latter.

Yup and envisioning it I've taken CSE with AI and ML specialization. I think it's a safe bet because regular programers will be out but those who know how to make more of these programs will be in Business and potentially thrive when we approach Technological revolution again

Which ones?

I agree. I think the concept of career is going ti change a bit and humans will have ti be more and more adaptative in their lives because technology will keep evolving faster, especially now that AI is doing all the hard crunch ans getting better every day.

I recommend looking into a career in cloud. It's a newer field than programming and changes rapidly. You could start by studying for one of the entry level certifications with AWS, Azure, or GCP while trying to get an entry level job in cloud operations. Then, if you continually learn and show your value, you'll have many great opportunities. And figure out how GPT can help with any of your tasks also!

@@user-eo1vk as a senior developer in india my advice to you is not to bother about all this. dont just depend on your college curriculum. its extremely backdated. open a udemy account, check when they are offering discounts and start learning any good rated course on fullstack development aftee coming back from college, dedicate atleast 2 hours everyday. you will immediately get a job after graduation. freshers who know advanced technologies will always be in high demand. chat gpt will primarily threaten senior engineers who are taking a fat salary and doing only simple tasks. a fresher with good starting knowledge is a valuable asset in any company.

An LLM could handle machinery eventually. GPT-4 has image processing. Give a future model video processing and you can provide it with the feed from a camera. Then it sends instructions to a machine in the form of the generated tokens they currently use to talk to us and produce code etc based on what it sees. Then put it in control of humanoid robots...

I think it is this since the beginning! This is pretty much the same with compilers: now almost no-one does assembly.

For a week or two. Then it will be only senior programmers. Shortly after that they won't be needed either.

@@tablettablete186 I think it is hardware advances that have limited the need for assembly perhaps a bit more.

@@toadlguy I was trying to relate what compilers were to assembly with how IA is changing how we program. In other words, nobody programs in assembly because compilers automated that work for us! And compilers might even optimize our code in ways we didn't even know was possible. Computers still use machine code, but how we develop code changed a lot. (I was using assembly because it is easier to visualize the idea) I honestly think AI will work in a similar way. How? Don't know yet

Either be roller coaster tycoon level or just don’t bother. Text to app coming your way

It's not difficult at all, surely not humanely impossible. Look, I'll do it for you: your job will be performed by an AI completely.in the future and you will become useless. Hopefully you have some money saved on the side.

Or maybe we could work a little less…

@@Blaze6108 Look at the history of software and business, that is not a possibility in a capitalist / publicly traded company (i.e. stock) world. PERIOD.

This is my take as well. Companies most likely will choose to be bolder and aim bigger with newfound productivity.

@@user-eo1vk This concern is understandable -- let me walk you through it. Complete your computer science degree. By doing so you will be ahead of 99% of the global population when it comes to technical ability and problem solving skills. A degree in Comp Sci basically tells the world that at a certain threshold you can think mathematically and computationally, which is very valued in all corners of the world. Assuming you are pursuing your degree full-time, in 3-4 years you will be able to assess what the job market will be like, but during your studies you will want to diversify your computer science skills into various domains such as Biology, Psychology, Neuroscience, and other areas of RESEARCH that are extremely desperate for computational skills. Do not remain stuck into just being a comptuer science student. Make yourself marketable to other domains of the industry and research. By doing so, you will be able to extend your opportunities outwards instead of being extremely narrow. Extending opportunities could mean going to graduate school in comp sci or social science research where you will be more valuable than someone who just has a degree in social science. Don't give up.

​@@user-eo1vk DONT worry. This is all fear mongering. Every RU-vidr doesn't understand AI is just statistics and algebra. They don't actually THINK. If you're halfway competent as a developer you'll be fine.

Depends if you are in Hilbert team or Gödel team.

Language model + wolfram is the first step I guess. Natural language input formatted and put through provable chains.

I'm also curious to know that how since in another side of the paper we have Science and Critical thinkers to be safe from this exposure. I presume it is applied math folks.

And I think we will get similar or better performance to Unreal 5's Lumen system. I can see ChatGPT handling a lot of every day engineering/business/scientific math but I think at least at the graduate and PhD level, mathematicians will still be in high demand who build solutions for incredibly complex tools like a AAA game engine.

You can't. People still have primal brain. We have this old emotion over our heads. Unfortunately the truth is that most people winning in genes lotery will be the ones on the top. Especially in the age where your intelligence will become obsolete. We will see but currently everything is leading to dark dystopian future. I hope I am wrong. But seeing 80-90s or even early 2000s seems like an golden era for many countries. We literally might get to the point where only physically gifted, beautiful and rich born people will be the leaders. The rest will be literally slave labour. At least in the primal times you could be - fast and strong, or intelligent (simplified here). The latter might become almost obsolete. Intelligence, critical thinking might be an asset only if person would be physically well.

A robotics revolution is just around the corner with gpt-5.

I don't think so. AI will flood the market to a point, where it will become almost impossible for a human artist to get their work seen. AI can already produce images very fast, it will be able to write engaging stories and novels very soon. When that happens, it will become all noise. And then it won't be any longer feasible to work as an artist or writer.

The comment I made was short and cynical and almost meaningless, and I feel like I should fix that. Personally, I had a learning disability, and I knew college would be hard for me, but I chose to go anyway because I wanted to advance my career and also challenge myself in order to grow up. Then the pandemic made it much harder, and I came up with a really bad coping mechanism of not letting myself sleep until I was done with my work, but also putting off the work, so each day I only got 2-3 hours of sleep starting after sunrise, for months. I didn't notice how screwed up my life was, because I was so isolated I would go days without talking to anyone. And lack of sleep makes everything harder. The most valuable lesson I ever learned was that the amount of sleep you get determines the difficulty setting of your life. 8 hours = easy, 6 hours = medium, 4 hours = hard, 2 hours = nightmare. If I had known this before college, I would have thrived and been happy. Instead I aged my brain by depriving it of sleep. I've been blaming my college for not sending students home during the pandemic, but in reality, it wasn't that bad for other students, just me. Everything bad about the pandemic was amplified by my choices. There is hope for computer science students. Last year, I thought some of my most marketable skills were my ability to program in Python, Rust, C... Now GPT4 will give anyone the ability to write code in those languages. But writing code is not the only skill that makes a programmer valuable. GPT4 will not write entire projects, it doesn't lay large foundations, it is not an architect, that's still up to us. GPT5 may be more capable of more of those things, but will still be a tool, and whoever weilds the tool and troubleshoots its output will still be called a programmer. People studying programming now, we know what good answers look like, we know what good questions look like. So we will be the people who use GPTs to write code. I think the valuable skills will be the ones where other people need to trust a human's experience because you can't tell that a solution is good just because it's working: -Network security, and other kinds of security. -design decisions. I think the skill I need to practice is designing large software projects. The largest game I ever made turned into a mess, so I probably need to start over and design it better. I think this skill will still be valuable in 20 years, because a good design is so important that it would be hard to trust an AI with it even if the AI really is smarter than any human. Right now, every day, I am practicing using ChatGPT. I'm just trying to get good at asking the right questions. I think this skill will apply to whatever job I get.

Thanks so much!

That's what we call bad input == bad output.

Some slightly complicated code gpt gets done with no issue but for very basic front-end code gpt can't do anything about it

In the near future when gpt is able to do everything coding related then no job is going to be saved from it. Even physical labour will be automated in no time

@@accountnotfound4209 I haven't seen it struggle with anything alongside plugins.

@@Ricolaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa My first comment was a bit harsh on purpose to initiate a discussion. In my last use of GPT I wanted to save some time implementing de-/compression algorithms. Even after correcting GPT on every mistake it made, I could not get useful code out of it. But you are right, it definitely depends on the use case. If it helps with plugins that's great.

When have clear ethical guidelines ever stopped greed, power and sorry sighted stupidity. Spray with chat gpt you can see it curates certain topics in an obscure fashion.

@@catocall7323 thanks for your answer but i don't understant clearly , what do you mean exactly?

@@afra_fadile that it will be used not for higher ideals nor mutual benefit, it will be used to consolidate the power of those who control it.

@@catocall7323 yeah you're right, unfortunately that's how the world works.

When GPT figures out how to become physical (aka take over some 3D printers etc), therefore not having any mobility or expansion restrictions, that will really be interesting. Maybe I just gave it an idea.

@@ChatGPT1111 Definitely... When GPT can an. lyze it's own code and improve it and when it has a vessel which at least has vision, hearing, mobility and can reasonably grasp things then it will advance exponentially. It will rapidly figure out any obstacle preventing it from advancing. Basically, it should reach a singularity in advancement and know everything that can be physically known and do everything that can be physically done. All sci-fi futuristic predictions are very incorrect.

but what about GPT-10?

@@mehregankbi It will certainly replace GTP-9

@@mehregankbi yeah the video is about GPT-4 which's frankly for some reason just worse asking it for CSS gives me JS asking it for java gives me fake packages and python style code dunno what happened but chatgpt got way worse in last 2-3 months

Nice ly put

@Adam It’s more of a higher-level job for a developer, because GPT can replace a lot of low level routine. We have more time and energy to make more use of our strength - our abstract thinking ability.

thanks. updated. That one gets me all the time.

New gpt plugins they just released solved that gap. It can access the web and also compile and run/debug code in the chatbox it's freaking insane

@@everry3357 A lot of hopelessness is going to be in near future. Fuck these large corporations.

I might be wrong but there are some things that never change 1- humans are lazy 2- machines can do amazing work if steered correctly, and go catastrophically wrong if not. In my opinion, you can't just ask it to do things, and be satisfied with what it does without understanding what it does. I mean it's fine for some small tasks here and there.. but ask it to do everything without understanding what it has done can lead to regrettable events

I was just talking about this with my colleagues yesterday and we ended up at the same conclusion

Whether or not it replaces every single coder out there doesn't really matter. People still use horses - they just do some things better than cars or tractors but here are a HELL of a lot fewer horses now than there was before the steam engine was invented. If one engineer can all of a sudden to the job of 10 engineers - a lot of engineers will lose their jobs.

@@mithrandirthegrey7644 Well yes, and no. Because if every engineer is 10x, then the engineers who lose their jobs have the capability to start their own business, creating more jobs. The overall demand for engineers will definitely be lower, but GPT won't replace them like engines replaced horses. Also if you set up an industry where being a junior is impossible, you will after a while run headfirst into a complete catastrophe once the older generation retires/dies off

I read somewhere that most major banks have banned the use of GPT, but there is one bank (Goldman Sachs) that's working on training their own model specifically to help their programmers write code faster.

@@zeddzorander9935 That doesn't make any sense whatsoever. You have the opportunity to start your own business arbitrarily at any point. I fail to see how being laid off has got anything at all to do with it. If 1 engineer can do the job of 10 engineers it absolutely stands to reason that the workforce can/will be slashed. Being a junior isn't impossible just because the industry changes. Juniors will just have to come with a new skillset. They don't have to be as good at programming as the previous generations were. They will have to be better at using tools like co-pilot and querying these AI models. It's no different from the fact that programmers 50-60 years ago had to know a lot about electronics. Today that's a niche part of software engineering called 'embedded engineering'. Most SWEs don't interact with hardware on a daily basis if at all. You can build an entire career out of just scripting things in Python without ever interacting with the hardware layer.

NO you are not. Data Scientists are one chatgpt plugin away from being made redundant.

I'm not really scared of what is, I'm scared of how fast will it grow. I'm only thankful that AI does not have creative ability yet, and is only able to use past knowledge.

Can't agree more: "GPT does not understand anything that it does, it's just a way of calculating probability and smoke screens."

I am just first sem computer science student from Nepal and a middle class person struggling through financial conditions. With these AI news I am feeling demotivated, depressed and literally cried last night Is AI, Machine leaning field safe and demanding in future? What should I study to be safe? I have 0 idea and I am absolute beginner I just want to make my family proud

Let it be, i'd like to see that chaos.

Better yet, hackers developing their own having AI's. The future will be a storm

Beyond that anyone getting into coding needs to understand the PURPOSE of code. It is to make things that add value to a company or to an individual. Code itself is not that important, it is what code enables you to make. I understand the fear that we are all experiencing, because I am experiencing it too, but if a tool can help us make things that add value to the world better and faster, we will be all ok. At least those that understand the purpose of code is a product and not an end unto itself. By the way, I LOVE code for itself, as an artform, but that part may change to some degree.

Can't read conflicting requirements? You may want to edit it to "Can't YET read conflicting requirements"

😂 my friend don't be like Phillips were with there cassette tapes, floodgates have been opened up and I see exponential growth very soon and I don't even like what I'm seeing btw 🙈

We need to make sophisticated construction robots

thx i appreciate that

The thing people aren't considering is that this will 'replace' CEOs as well. LLMs can give ordinary people with good communication skills the ability to learn how to start a business, draw up contracts, etc. If CEOs start laying off their programmers, they will begin to find those programmers self-starting their own competing business using ChatGPT.

Save a buck, just like Boeing, companies will destroy their own brand if it means marginally better quarterly reports.

Google and microsoft have already spent money on AI tech/software for their developers to use. So for the time being they are urging their workers to use it.
