So are we not calculating the amount of training the junior dev took?

Junior dev just need to copy paste code from stackoverflow

So they do the exact sams thing as the LLM?

Yeah but they make you buy decaf

The LLM has read and copied every post on stack overflow, which is what separates the juniors from the seniors.

I don't think that not educating people is an option. Even in the highly unlikely case that every job is hypothetically taken over by "AI": humans like to learnand hone their skills.

Alternatively, I don’t think that not educating AI is an option.

Why? Deploying or not deploying so-called AI is a choice we, as a society can make. The only reason why LLMs are pushed so hard by the industry is because some corporate gouls think that they can save money on labour with it.

They were trained before the task. The LLM was trained after.
