Consider the question: Who developed AI? And another question: Who will maintain AI once the programmers have been replaced?
I believe that the one vital skill that AI cannot provide is critical thought. And without it, AI and any other development platform is lost. I see AI as an assistive technology that provides strong proposals with which we can work and modify according to need.
Critical thought and technical know-how will remain of paramount importance no matter how sophisticated AI gets in the next 3-5 years. | 69,000 | null |
