What's the new "learn to code" now that coding is on the way out?
>inb4 build/invest in AI
You need capital to do that, so the next 5-10 years of job security are critical.
So far the best idea I've come up with is to do trade certs, then be a tradie for a few years to pay for college to do an engineering degree. Then maybe do some oil rig/pipeline work to get startup capital for deep learning projects. What does bot think?
Also what are the best countries to set up in with regard to regulation of big data and predictive algorithms? (By "best" I mean "won't get in your way".)
Simple,

becomes
>learn to code better than AI
You don't deserve to get paid for monkey boilerplate code, sorry. I'm not answering the rest of your moron questions.
>You don't deserve to get paid for monkey boilerplate code, sorry. I'm not answering the rest of your moron questions.
Indians still get paid en masse for this.
>Learn to prompt.
India superpower 2029.
>learn to employ the AI to help you write better, faster code
ftfy
Learn to prompt.
learn math and statistics
Why should this be useful? Math and statistics don't make you a better programmer.
wrong, mathematicians are the best coders most of the time.
Maths is an iq test and training in abstract problem solving and is far more useful than comp sci courses teaching you sorting algorithms you can learn later anyway
except that mathematicians don't want to code. and if you are abstract enough you don't need to do a single calculation...
yeah no that isn't true, most maths grads do coding because they want money
Better than grinding leetcode and reading another book on Java design pattern though. Being able to read and understand academic paper will be an essential skill in coming era. LLM will do most of mundane coding skill so you should come up with new brilliant idea (which you can't) or be the first to implement the new idea in the future.
Number one would be blue collar, but then you have to work together with conservative immigrant backstabbers.
Number two is to teach learn to code to greedy third worlders through courses or bootcamps. It's selling shovels during a gold rush, so if you have no self respect and ethics go for it.
Number three would be doing something that you have genuine interest for. Then it really doesn't matter whether the field becomes shit, because you'll have this autistic ambition that puts you in the top one percent.
I switched from tech to being an art curator and make 300k per year after taxes.
data science is the field you want to be in over straight development/coding
>Can you recommend a way to get started on this? Could you just dive into open access journals, or is there more to it than that?
Skimming through abstracts (+ conclusions if you're interested, entire article if you're really interested) of conference paper/arxiv preprint/open access journal/libgen or scihub would be more than enough if you're not a researcher.
Try search for implementation of the paper in paperswithcode.com. Contribute if there's none and you can implement the paper yourself.
I also check hackernews/reddit(ironically)/twitter/awesome lists/facebook for recent paper/research everyday.

Thanks, looks useful.
I don't want to just survive though. Don't you want to be part of the biggest change since industrialisation?
There is none
Just prepare to survive another ~12 months
Make sure to invest, buy index funds and if at all possible, cheap property
What exactly are you waiting for, total replacement?
Take an intro course to any Machine Learning class and realize you're over-reacting.
In what way is retraining for a job that will exist overreacting?
>What's the new "learn to code" now that coding is on the way out?
This part.
Where's the overreaction in thinking most coders can be replaced by LLM?
Because an LLM can't code.
Yea, none of them can compile code.
Just say you can't prompt, it's okay
Last (you), make it count
>t. replaced in five years top
How the hell can you get training/education/job advice if you dont even mention where the frick you live? its hard to get a job if you live in the middle of nowhere.
UK suburbs. I can move though, so it's not that important. Also there are other people ITT with their own circumstances, so generalised advice would be helpful.
This for now, but eventually fewer and fewer coders will be needed.
With recursive prompts you can get them to do a lot of the work for you.
This. We're like 19th century farmers watching the new threshing machines come in.
I like search engines. I don't want to use them for 8 hours a day and get paid peanuts for it.
>That's exactly the future I'm trying to avoid
You sound like someone from the 90's saying "I don't want to search Google :("
You either adapt or get left behind.
>learn to relax and enjoy abundance bro
Personally I'm gonna live with my gf on a remote ranch with robot workers.
>What's the new "learn to code" now that coding is on the way out?
moron.
You're fricked
"Learn to code" is dead, but SWE isn't, even if you are not very good at it. Most morons put out of work by AI will be data "scientists" and webshits.
AI is just pattern completion and will be for a long time. It does not work in anything that needs even a remote amount of thinking.
If you think AI is so great, try letting it generate some shader-code
Learn to weld, ideally under water.
?t=1770
Sounds like a good start. What kind of welding jobs have you worked? Can you give us an idea of what it's like?
>What's the new "learn to code"
Learn to be born with better RNG. Literally the Pajet religion.
