This isn't exactly a Scam Altman screed, you should read the link.

That's a huge wall of text. Ctrl+f 2027 or "years" doesn't turn up anything related to what you said. Maybe you can quote something more precise.

I mean, 99.99% of engineering disappearing by 2027 is the most unhinged take I've seen for LLMs, so it's actually a good thing for Dario that he hasn't said that.

I think your text search might be broken, or you missed the context.

Dario's vision of AI is "smarter than novel prize winners" in 2027.

Sorry, Dario's Claude itself disagrees with you

> The comment about software engineering being “fully automated by 2027” seems to be an oversimplification or misinterpretation of what Dario Amodei actually discusses in the essay. While Amodei envisions a future where powerful AI could drastically accelerate innovation and perform tasks autonomously—potentially outperforming humans in many fields—there are nuances to this idea that the comment does not fully capture.

> The comment’s suggestion that software engineering will be fully automated by 2027 and leave only the “0.01% engineers” is an extreme extrapolation. While AI will undoubtedly reshape the field, it is more likely to complement human engineers than entirely replace them in such a short timeframe. Instead of viewing this as an existential threat, the focus should be on adapting to the changing landscape and learning how to leverage AI as a powerful tool for innovation.

I did, and I don't really see where it says what you wrote it does
