Sam Altman argued it was "already feels difficult to remember how much effort it really took" for coders to write software.

Altman’s remarks in his tweet drew an overwhelmingly negative reaction.

“You’re welcome,” one user responded. “Nice to know that our reward is our jobs being taken away.”

Others called him a “f***ing psychopath” and “scum.”

“Nothing says ‘you’re being replaced’ quite like a heartfelt thank you from the guy doing the replacing,” one user wrote.

    I’ll take all the AI they throw at me once the governments start taxing the rich appropriately, and these taxes cover for at least the basic needs of everyone. I’m not holding my breath, they always want everything.

      I wish more people brought this up instead of just flinging shit at users/companies using AI.

      They’re fighting an unwinable battle, AI is here to stay and it will keep improving, we have to adapt and ensure people are able to have their basic needs met.

      But that’s scary socialism or w/e.
