    "increased project productivity, increased responsiveness to user needs and flexibility in the face of changing requirements, Shorter project times, enhanced system quality, improved project management, increased standardization, ability to replace project personnel easily, ability to leverage managerial, ..." https://dl.acm.org/doi/pdf/10.1145/57216.57228[^] Case tools if you were wondering. And from 1988. Myself I am not too concerned about alarmist rhetoric about what AI projects might mean for programming. Nor really for other types of the work force either. Far as I can recall I first saw an automated order entry system in a fast food restaurant in the 1990's. Yet today I still see a person behind the counter for every fast food place I go to. I will note a reduction in cashiers in grocery stores (and Walmart) but that is only because the cashiers have been replaced by me and not a machine. Not to mention of course that 'AI' as it is used now is actually just an extreme version of pattern matching. A real 'AI' as it has been generally discussed for at least the past 100 years is visually represented in the movie "I, Robot" in the opening part of the movie is where a robot sees a woman's purse being stolen on a busy sidewalk, chases the thief, catches the thief and then returns the purse. Now when that happens then I might be concerned about what jobs robots might replace.

      What if we are all AI programs running in the background in some weird integration test.

        Just like the industrial revolution the AI revolution will doubtless have big impact. It might be even worse, after all the service sector already existed in the past it just grew afterwards. But while the service sector will be diminished by this revolution, its replacement doesn't seem to exist yet... As for programming specifically, who knows, no real threat seems apparent now. Not until the fabled - and likely distant - "AI singularity" happens...

            Anyway they were replaced. Machines replaced highway tolls employees, here in Italy. I see AI could replace people in call centers.

                All low skill and low IQ people on earth will be replaced by AI systems. That is a fact. Question now is, how do these replaced peoples survive?

                    In America, a person is hard-pressed to find any remaining good farmland due to the ever increasing urban sprawl. We import more now, than ever before. Almost every farmer in America has to be subsidized by the local and federal governments in order to remain functional and viable. Edit: farmland is getting smaller, in acreage, every year, due to urban sprawl. My original comment made it read as if we don't have any farmland left. Also, interesting to note, that Bill Gates owns a tremendous amount of farm land in the United States now and he is anti-beef/cattle and pro meat substitute.

                      Lot's here in Georgia USA. I think the real issue has more to do with being profitable. If you were doing it to survive, you would have of course a huge reduction in your "standard of living" - but you'd survive. A friend from decades past went to college specifically to become a farmer. He did quite well, but he worked his butt off. He got started in the land crash around 1980 and bought out a bankrupt farm for 10 cents on the dollar. He also picked this farm due to its peanut quota. Yep, there's that government thing again. Me? I'm about to grab a free chicken run and get me some egg layers.

                                    Not only urban sprawl, but I heard that China is buying up American farmland at an alarming rate.

                                    yes, they are. China has owned parts of the Port of Long Beach California for many years. Federal and local governments have been "trying" to limit this from growing for years. I think the battle still continues.

                                      Well, I know you are a troll, and I think this is another prominent member's sock puppet account, almost sure of it, and I am almost 100% sure I know who you are. There are a number of articles and reports online describing how the farm land in America is getting smaller and smaller over time due to urban development, etc. Everything I said is true.

                                      Nope, neither a troll nor a fake account. So, you're wrong again. :) And if I'm a troll why bother feeding me with some click-bite article? Even a simple AI would notice something fishy with the numbers this article is based on. Some 1.9 mil acres lost in housing annually. This is under 3000 square miles. Verry sensational.

And from 1988. Myself I am not too concerned about alarmist rhetoric about what AI projects might mean for programming. Nor really for other types of the work force either. Far as I can recall I first saw an automated order entry system in a fast food restaurant in the 1990's. Yet today I still see a person behind the counter for every fast food place I go to. I will note a reduction in cashiers in grocery stores (and Walmart) but that is only because the cashiers have been replaced by me and not a machine. Not to mention of course that 'AI' as it is used now is actually just an extreme version of pattern matching. A real 'AI' as it has been generally discussed for at least the past 100 years is visually represented in the movie "I, Robot" in the opening part of the movie is where a robot sees a woman's purse being stolen on a busy sidewalk, chases the thief, catches the thief and then returns the purse. Now when that happens then I might be concerned about what jobs robots might replace.

                                        It’s pretty much as with car assembly plants, robots replace workers but you still need a couple of engineers in case robots go out of normal functioning order.
