Tech LAYOFFS - 6 survival RULES for coders | Survival Guide Part 6 

This part was the best so far. Nice.

My friend, you've truly outdone yourself with this one. Another groundbreaking creation in the world of Scripter AI RU-vid content-7 out of 6, absolutely beyond extraordinary!

You're genuine and direct. Thank you.

6 are GPT-4, Google's PaLM 2, Meta's LLaMA 2, Anthropic's Claude 2, Cohere's Command R, and Mistral's Mistral 7B.

This was way much better than the previous part with long rambling explanation about transformers. 👏🏻 Keep up the good work! 👌🏻

"Imagine a non-arrogant programmer...." Imagine an executive who is a decent human being. Nope, I can't imagine one either.

Rule number 7: Be young. 10 million programmers will loose their jobs, and several hundred thousand new assistants to the AI coders will be hired.

More shovels please.

COBOL programming still pays well. 14:43

I have been beating this drum for the past 5 years. If you are in tech, find a career that still requires and will require the human connection. Yoga teacher, plumber, bartender etc..

I am super safe, my skill set, layout RF and power cables.

Doctors, lawyers don't exist? 19:10

AI has boosted my powers as a software engineer by many orders of magnitude and I absolutely love it ❤❤❤ But do not think AI is going to magically make stupid coders into awesome coders. It will make average coders better and awesome coders even more awesome. Win win for everyone.

The argument you are making sounds similar to one Tina Huang made about not getting displaced by AI. Basically, she was arguing for moving higher up the food chain, or as you say she was proposing to ride the swell of the wave rather than let it crash over you. But ultimately, you wipe out when the wave gets the better of you; or in the case of Tina's presentation, my comment was you will only be able to stay out in front of the AI wave for so long, and then its innate superiority will surpass you. What if we assume that AI is not malicious; never malicious; and simply wants to contribute productively. Around 1900, there were probably many millions of horses across the globe. But some icky black stuff in Pennsylvania would eventually make them unnecessary. Well, what if humans are to be the horses? Our strength has long since been exceeded by machines. Now, in less than a decade our intelligence, creativity, and dexterity will be exceeded by intelligent robotics. And like all those horses in the year 1900, we simply will not be needed in such quantities any more by the rich and powerful. This is just assuming altruistic AI and just the natural progress of society and technology. Your proposal will work for some of the better educated with financial reserves and ingenuity to survive for maybe another decade or so. And then what? What is the future for anyone born today or still under 30? And there is one other thing which bothers me with your presentation. In the USA, we are taught that the poor are poor due to their own short comings. And it sounds like you are saying the same thing of those who are to be thrown permanently out of work ... they are responsible for their own being "vitamins" and not being "medicine". A very capitalist point of view. I liked you better when you were talking as a socialist about people being denied a safety net so that they would stay scared and hungry; being easy to manipulate by the rich and powerful who had taken all the pizzas for themselves. Maybe we should say no to a society where only a few benefit from AI. Maybe we should say no to slavery 2.0; since this is what big tech intends for AI. Slaves always rebel whether a Dacian named Spartacus or a Haitian named Toussaint L'Ouverture. Maybe it is time for Abolition 2.0; and make AI our ally as opposed to buy into the side of the Master Class. Let's get it right this time. And let's do right by the Rise of AI.

discord link in the description didn't work for me. but the link (really a button) where it's next to "about" and "patreon" near the end of description works. Hopefully the second sentence made sense

greate video! ❤

I'm just iOS developer and now it's really hard to find a job. Thinking about switching to something AI-related

Hi Thank you very much for this video. It is great. However, I have a few questions. 1. I am currently 22 years old and studying marketing. I am working as an e-commerce specialist. Do you think the marketing and e-commerce industry will get hit hard by ai? Do you think there might be a problem with jobs and good salaries in the future? Of course, I mean a person who provides value to the company and is good at it. 2. do you think artificial intelligence will be able to understand the potential recipient/customer better than a human and create a better marketing message? 3. I used to learn programming (HTML, CSS, JS), but I left that in favor of marketing. In your opinion, would it be safer to return to the world of programming and then further educate myself on the topics of artificial intelligence? Thank you in advance for your answer. You are doing a great job!

I for one vote for a separate video covering deep dive into the lucrative world of MLOps and CUDA programming! I want to learn how to wrangle temperamental AI models and tame wild GPU cores like a digital cowboy. I Don't want to just survive the AI revolution - I want to thrive in it by mastering the art of shovel-selling in the 21st century. Your future self will thank you when you're swimming in cryptocurrency, paid in full by grateful AI overlords. Vote now, before the machines learn to vote for themselves! remember AI has also been trained on Nassim Taleb' "minority rule"

Again, top notch video - thank you! Do you have the discord links? The ones above are invalid.

“Push yourself to the edge, and see what you’re really made of.” - Point Break Edge of tech or edge of unemployment? Choose wisely! Because we're all surfers now? Cowabunga, dude! 🏄‍♂🌊 Another great video by Scriptor Scripter The rise of AI marks the twilight of James Burnham's "managerial class" and the dawn of visionary founder-led Agentic organizations. As traditional corporate structures crumble under the weight of rapid technological change. This tectonic shift heralds Balaji Srinivasan's concept of "The Network State," where decentralized, purpose-driven communities coalesce around visionary Agentic enhanced leaders. In this new AI age, the ability to adapt quickly and harness the power of AI becomes paramount, leaving slow-moving, bureaucracy-laden corporations in the dust. The future belongs to those who can not only envision the potential of AI but also rally a global, distributed open AI to turn that vision into reality. “Surfing’s the source. Can change your life. Swear to God.”

The transition from C to CUDA is not as straight forward as you seemed to imply. While the languages syntactically look very similar, programming in CUDA requires a lot more consider than C (it's easier to make fast C code than it is to make fast CUDA code). This is why there is such a demand for skilled CUDA developers - they're able to take the intricacies of parallelism, register allocation, function unit allocation, branching, memory requests and I/O, and bank management into account while developing algorithms. So CUDA programming is less so about writing code, and more so about writing dataflow algorithms. That's not to say it can't be learned, but it's a very steep learning curve. It does make me wonder if new developers may be better off learning ROCm (or both at the same time?), since AMD GPUs tend to be lower power (Watts) and cheaper, but lack a strong ecosystem of ML kernel optimization.

I may start investing some time in learning to use CUDA. Couldn't hurt.

Language models may not be able to write Verilog, its not good at desiging hardware. I live in U.S. subscribed your channel sir

Hello. Thanks for the video. Unfortunately, I cannot join the discord, he says that the invitation is invalid

I keep refreshing. What uplink speed you got there? I am at 200 down / 60 up.

Watching now ...

Not too shabby

All this time they had Indian workers

Well this didn't help much, just more doom to life, but thanks for the video anyway. I wonder if process of watching these videos and actually studying relevant stuff and moving towards the edge separates me from the most of software devs, or we all are trying to look 5 years ahead right now.

This is a deeply scary video if you have children.

Appreciate your analysis, but IMHO characterizing programmers as "labor providers" is reductive. Sure, *some* (or many) may be, but there's a hierarchy.

Microsoft Edge..?
