Source? Which software products are built without engineers?

0 comments

Personal websites etc, you don't think about them as software products since they weren't built by engineers, but 30 years ago you needed engineers to build those things.

Ok, well I’m not going to worry about my job then. 25 years ago GeoCities existed and you didn’t need an engineer. 10 year old me was writing functional HTML, definitely not an engineer at that point.

To be honest maybe no one should worry.

If AI truly overtakes knowledge work there’s not much we could reasonably do to prepare for it.

If AI never gets there though, then you saved yourself the trouble of stressing about it. So sure, relax, it’s just the second coming of GeoCities.
