The tech market is fundamentally fucked up and AI is just a scapegoat

This argument works until you realize that Claude Code is AGI.

A code monkey with AGI is better than 10 "excellent professionals" without AGI.

Better get used to the future, buddy.

So where are the AI-induced gains?

If it is AGI and you have access to it, pivot from code now. You will make millions or billions on pharmaceutical products in as little as one month. Start making cures for non small cell cancers; those are untapped markets. Reverse aging. Even at $1mill a treatment over ten treatments, you would be sought after. Go! Get off HN! Rule the world.

While I disagree it's AGI, AGI is not omniscience. It just means it general and able to address the same wide range of problems as human intelligence.
