Will Devin AI Take Your Job? 

how about the War in Ukraine and million death??

@@youtube.master4766 yeah that too, the past 2 years have been fucking exhausting.

Not to mention ‘Web3’, ‘AR’, ‘Metaverse’, and other hypetrains SWE influencers have been jumping on in recent years to get quick ad revenue. The SWE job market post-2022 has been atrocious, ‘senior’, ‘senior’, ‘senior’ is literally all I see nowadays.

dude, the past TWO years? the society has been dying for at least like 5-6 years already. we're rotting from the inside.

Well if Devin is successful. Next step would be Melvin who does management work with much better insights for shareholders. People hoping to replace developers must be afraid as well.

😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢

Software as a service !

been a NEET for around 4 years now and i'm doing pretty well mentally and financially thank god.

@@timalk2097 What's this NEET?

@@codegrind1NEET - Not in Education, Employment, or Training

you are too optimistic, maybe AI is the real deal... what if it is!

@@polaris1985 well, it's achieved better results than before and it's probably here to stay. But like many times before when some new came around, people thought it would be the end of the world and they would lose their jobs, the new thing just became a new tool to make people more efficient

But with terminal, browser and IDE built-in

Bro devin needs i​t because how it will get errors and also run commands and write code etc @@flamakespark

False and false, it s a nanoGPT wrapper which from my knowledge it's at GPT 2 level... So yeah, you do the math.

@@flamakespark chatGpt can run code itself as well. same goes for gemini. it's just that chatGpt and Gemini does that in server and doesn't show us what they are doing. but devin is showing. it's like that particular machine is it's own server where devin can use terminal and browser. Gpt4 and gemini advanced is better than devin currently.

​@@eduardmilea2013Andrey karpathy enjoyer spotted 🧏‍♂️🤫

like someone said, "i dont need to be better than AI, i just need to be better than others to keep a job" lol

But in some ways it sounds like "be a better horse groom" when cars came out to the world... I'm just a scared man hasn't even started his IT career yet

@@Yohanjin0925 Ai will kill off bad programmers for sure because bad programmers are the ones who copy and paste. Become a master... but how? Pick one language and get good at it, learn about CS - data structures and algorithms, build projects. Then any and every language is the same just syntax is different. I use to be scared too but honestly, we have no idea what will happen - good nor bad. Recently a lot of articles are stating that there will be an AI bubble soon so it doesnt look so good for AI "taking over". Programmers who never made any project are scared but programmers who have yrs of experience are not... so I rather listen to experienced programmers. Become better, fears will just hold you back, just get better with a proper plan.

Let’s hope the product managers use this. Let’s hope it backfires on them and realize that need human engineering

Be careful what you wish for

Id rather not have it get released ever tbh

Yup. Tesla announces self-driving cars are coming "just next year". Been happening for roughly the past 10 years. Their stock price soars. AI companies have followed suit and are making all kinds of crazy claims because AI is the latest hype project. Devin will be replacing all programmers. All vehicles will be AI controlled. Skynet is going to run our entire defense network, and everyone is going to spend their entire day logged into VR on Zuckerberg's Metaverse.

Not really comparable, AI in itself is a new industrial revolution - Microsoft Excel was not.

even if AI is just a tool like Excel and not another industrial revolution, then less devs would be able to do more tasks using these ai tools for example one senior developer could do the job of a team of 10 less experienced developers so far less developers will be employed. this is what I'm afraid of because it will lead to massive layoffs and unemployment for programmers and developers

@@lone-warrior-13 Decimation of entry and mid level jobs. Exactly like happening with artists in the game industry, illustration, musicians, video editors, cashiers, writers, actors, accountants... even singers!... Lots of fields and professions, not just programmers. If that's the fear, then the amount of social issues this would generate, would need (it'll happen) a global solution or regulation (to avoid, among other things, riots; history always tells us that economies never develop well with continuous revolts, economic huge unbalance, and consumption stall). Regulation which I firmly believe will come ...not "one" law, but lots of complex regulations and systems to compensate the whole thing. Among _many_ other things, because societies and economies do need consumers (for the rich staying rich, indeed), and in big numbers. That cannot be provided by a majority formed by jobless people. And I am not referring here to the UBI (universal basic income) thing as a solution (or not only that). That is not in the interest of the powers that be, the large companies and govs.... as it kills the system, and so , their income. It's a complex social, economic and politic problem, it is not just technical. And the solutions Altman proposes (the "utopia") are only good on the technical aspects, but he is very wrong about the human and social side of things, and he might have not read much about history. So... for now I would just focus on keep doing what we know and can do, improving, like always. It is too son to make so many predictions. And the time focusing solely on predictions (or taking bad decisions due to those) is IMO time lost, while there are many "unknown variables" as to be hyper focused on that future problem. If we've learnt something in the past years is that predictions are hard to make for everyone, in every field.

Also controllers. The advanced version of an accountant who can look and plan ahead as well :)

@@lone-warrior-13 In economies increasing value production per person is only a good thing. It means that now your salary is even more worth it.

That was a perfect way to explain it

What happened? XD

Yup, this pretty much sums up the future.

What's a "black box in his job"?

@@bestopinion9257 black box is like some free chat gpt web for generating code. It's kinda hype for fresh grads

@@e-jarod4110 kinda messy code just install all of those things black box suggested. Too many conflicts like it already install code mirror then some parts he uses Monaco something like those. The problem here is the ai generating solutions without the consistency in mind. When it can't produce a short solution it will suggest some libraries and some of those are just doing the same.

AI MIGHT help in some cases for things that can be wildly automated, but not per use specific cases. Jee, I saw many newbs using it for „coding“ and they are always asking me why this and that is not working. Well… AI might help and assist in certain things but it always will fall on one logical premise: shit in, shit out. If 80 % of articles about something is full of crap (ie. Russian propaganda), it will take it without logical reasoning like people do (well, some of them) and will claim it as a FACT. Same for code. And gee, there is a LOT of crap out there… Not just code, anything. Just on youtube, try to find some serious info about anything you want. Influencers who are doind advertisement, crappy clickbaits etc.

Correct. But...that's NOT all. Devin and other AI tools STILL DO NOT know how to even parse let alone make the best decisions from FULL CONTEXT using "EXISTING" docs of what frameworks like Next.js are fully capable of. Not even at 10%. How does that make them play to take dev jobs away from human developers? Don't believe the hype. Keep on coding and becoming expert in your area. Companies who fall for this and make bad hiring/not hiring decisions will lose out big.

"Hey, this technology is not working correctly nowadays, so it never ever will in the foreseeable future, guys."

@@PartneredBrands These are just tools, if they haven’t been taught, they don’t know how, and there are so many tasks that it’s not enough to just feed all the code from GitHub or stackoverflow. Moreover, every 3 months we have updates in support of new browser functions, which means programming becomes easier, but AI developers did not teach this to the full extent (except for providing documentation with a description) because they have few cases to explain to AI how they Using this or that function, we solved the problem easier and, in general, how we can use it. And I’m talking only about web development and even only about the frontend... but how much do we have in total? Backend, applications for iOS, Android, specialized software, etc. Honestly, it’s hard to call it AI, it has no thought process, just an algorithm, do it this way and nothing else! And let’s be honest, not a single company has the capacity to create AI, just a database with a random answer to a question, remember the demo where they ask how much 2+2? he answers 4, the answer is 6, oh, sorry, you're right, 6...

@@jr-yn4lk A few horses still have jobs...

I'm sorry, but no. This entire video is cope. And its also very myopic. Even if Devin (or GPT-4) can't take your job today, it doesnt mean that Devin 2 or Devin 3 wont (or whatever other name it or its competitors will have). By downplaying the actual capabilities of AI systems you are not making yourself any favours.

@@TheManinBlack9054even thought I believe AI will take the jobs I will answer to you with the same logic: You have no evidence neither that the curve is exponential and that we didnt or arent close to roof. That just your faith.

​@@ginbarato1178 what other further evidence does he need while the proofs for a skyrocket rate of progression are all around us..? - And it's only the beginning...

@@wishmeheaven I am sorry but extraordinary claims need extraordinary evidence. The "exponentiallity" of the curve has not been proven yet, it is natural to believe it, but it is just a belief. I wish it was true, but it stays a belief, no different than thinking we will have flying cars.

@@TheManinBlack9054 and you probably haven't seen all the other hypecycles to compare this with or are ignoring them. Sure the tool will get better but it can't be human. There will be swing towards this tool but eventually the industry will swing back when they realise it can't replace humans.

Devin is the not the point, future Devin is the point, and the exponential rate of AI is improving is what you should be worried about. I don’t understand how people are so short sighted. I’m sure companies are thinking the same thing, they are not looking at Devin 1.0 but 3.0….

@@navis462 I agree. Obviously in its current state, Devin is really not intimidating. If it is capable to take our jobs now, then why are we still working as software engineers? The future and the exponential growth of AI is the point. However having said that, I am still not quite sure how long will it take for it to be able to replace us. So called 'self driving' cars has been around for almost 10 years and today we're nowhere near for a full self driving cars that can be adopted by the masses. AI Software engineers are gonna get better, but the real question is how long will it take

@@navis462 I'm not worried till AI takes over 40% of the real jobs.

Yup its like the will smith video generated a year back. lets just wait a year.

@@navis462 Future devin is today's monkey jpegs.

It was always going to arrive and grow, to suggest it was going to be a short term thing would be laughable. Its a game changer. It'll change the world as we know it. Its already doing that, though its in its infancy stages. Just look at how the World Wide Web and the Internet changed the world. This is going to do the same thing.

this is just the starting point, just wait when companies release LLMs for every engineering field or for chemists, they gonna get bananas

We're only at the beginning of a fast-evolving AI industrial revolution. From now on, multiple new industries will be hit every year until 70% of population is unemployed.

@@Lykkos29 glad to see someone awake ! Absolutely spot on... The technology is already there, waiting to be released. The ignorance of people is going to come to an end very very soon. We have let psychopaths at the top get away with too much sh*t without facing any consequences. They are after us and they want it all unless we say NO.

Actually he’s been the slowest at this. Devin came out about a week ago

Yeah there are already so many RU-vidrs who Made a Video of it

@@yodkwtf True, but his investigative research is more thorough than any other that I've seen. Everyone else pretty much just said, "Look! Cool!"

Yeah that's a good catch.

We don't know where we are on the curve honestly. We could be at the beginning or reaching the plateau.

lol

And his claim is still true, the best AI still can't produce human like translations with the nuances that we have in our native speech, you don't need a professional human translator to spot an AI generated translation. Not to mention literary translations which still needs light years for AI to be good enough to compete with us.

@@mo_1023 Well, in my eyes that is irrelevant, because practically the translations of AI nowadays are good enough for 99% of the cases that you need it. Also: the nuances that you are talking about - only the extremely good translators are really capable of translating them very well. So what you are basically then saying is: An average translator will never be as good as a genius translator. Well, i would agree on that one. ;-) PS: Also, the professor was way more radical - he would have never believed in the tranlsation possibilities that exist today. He did not even believe in low quality translations by a machine.

@@mo_1023 Another side note: I have written and published a poetry book in 2009. Now when I use AI today to translate the poems - the quality is better than I myself could produce them. For sure there might be a translator genius that would find even better translations. But there would be way more average translators who would barely reach the quality of AI translations.

That or understand the fact that the moment software engineering is automated pretty much all the other jobs can and will be automated. If the majority of the people are out of work then companies don't have anyone to do business with, along the chain of B2B companies at the end there is a B2C. Consumers are always at the end of the chain and if the majority of the consumers are broke then it creates a domino effect. "He who suffers before it is necessary, suffers more than is necessary"

@@_b001 I'm not sure what you're getting at. Are you trying to say that because AI revolution will create a dystopian world, the technological advancement will actually be stopped?

exactly, as a dev myself I will pay for such tool, even though these AIs are meant to be general I find them very useful in tests, pretty much nothing more.

I'm sure you will be using AI to do that.
