I see this in the USA too - electrical engineers fiddling with css to make buttons dance, published computer scientists working on trivial systems for massive data centers billing systems - the tech market does always seem inefficient, and yet, at some point the market is going to have more knowledge and expertise than it needs, especially if AI predictions play out. What happens then?





> especially if AI predictions play out

Thats a big if. Big tech has enshittified everything its touched for a long time now.


sure - I don’t personally believe AI will, but, if hardware becomes a commodity, rather than how software has traditionally been, this is an inevitable outcome anyway. It isn’t a dramatic statement, we’ve already been seeing the effects.
