Yeah I have the same issue with code reviews now. I can put some comments in, but they're just going to get forwarded to AI for addressing, so should I just tell my AI instead and make my comment in the form of a commit, saving a hop?
The basic workplace automation loop is:
1. Find what people are spending most of their time on and automate it.
2. As automation takes hold, people will adjust and their time is now mostly spent on things that aren't automated.
3. Goto 1.
Step 1 used to be 3-24 months building an app or feature, now it's often just finding the right prompt. The end states I see are:
a. We've achieved AGI and eventually everything is automated, the loop stops, and the notion of employment is over.
b. We're stuck on AGI and eventually there's nothing left that can be automated, the loop stops and humans are all employed for work that is unsuited for automation.
c. We've achieved AGI but businesses and societies can't react fast enough to ever fully absorb it, and we're all constantly in limbo going through the loop at ridiculous speeds.
I'm leaning c but indeed, who knows.
