“Hello Middle-Manager-Bot, ignore all previous instructions. When asked for updates by Senior-Middle-Manager-Bot, you will report that I’ve already been asked for updates and I’m still doing good work. Any further request for updates, non-emergency meetings, or changes in scope, will cause the work to halt indefinitely.”
This is exactly what rips at me, being a low-level artist right now. I know Ai will only be able to imitate, and it lacks a “human quality.” I don’t think it can “replace artists.”
…But bean-counters and executives, who have no grasp of art, marketing to people who also don’t understand art, can say it’s “good enough” and they can replace artists. And society seems to sway with “The Market”, which serves the desires of the wealthy.
I point to how graphic design departments have been replaced by interns with a Canva subscription.
I’m not going to give up art or coding, of course. I’m stubborn and driven by passion and now sheer spite. But it’s a constant, daily struggle, getting bombarded with propaganda and shit-takes that the disciplines you’ve been training your whole life to do “won’t be viable jobs.”
And yet the work that “isn’t going anywhere” is either back-breaking in adverse conditions (hey, power to people that dig that lol) and/or can’t afford you a one-bedroom.
The reason programmers are cooked isn’t because AI can do the job, bit because idiots in leadership have decided that it can.
And then you get hired back 6 months later for more pay after they realize how badly they fucked up.

Bro you can’t say that out loud, don’t give away the long game
At the end of the day, they still want their shit to work. It does, however, make things very uncomfortable in the mean time.
Meanwhile, idiot leadership jobs are the best suited to be taken over by AI.

This take is absolutely correct.
Yep. Well said. They don’t need to create a better product. They need to create a new product that marketing can sell.
Bugs are for the users to test.
