I will say that offshoring has developed a bad name; maybe not unreasonably. There’s some terrible outsourcing shops.

But there’s also a few that are really good. I know people that used Romanian and Polish shops that did great work. They weren’t super-cheap, but still cheaper than American contract developers.

I assume that the bad offshoring orgs are pretty nervous about AI. I also assume that the better ones are learning to incorporate AI as a force multiplier.

Interesting times, ahead…
