I would say that "replacing with AI assistance" is probably not what is actually happening. Is it economic factors reducing hiring. This isn't the first time it has happened and it won't be the last. The AI boosters are just claiming responsibility for marketing purposes.
It may also be self fulfilling. Our new ceo said all upcoming projects must save 15% using ai, and while we’re still hiring it’s only in India.
So 6 months from now we will have status reports talking about how we saved 15% in every project
And those status reports will be generated by AI, because that’s where the real savings is.
Yep
