So your argument is:

There is some tech that is getting progressively better.

I am high on the linear scale

Therefore I don't worry about it cathing up to me ever

And this is the top voted argument.

> is getting progressively better

Is it still getting better? My understanding is that we're already training them on all of the publicly available code in existence, and we're running in to scaling walls with bigger models.

Considering the entire purpose of the original post is asking people what they're doing, why do you have such a problem with the top voted argument? If the top voted argument was in favour of this tech taking jobs, would you feel better?
