A developer's blunt take on the economic consequences if AI investments actually pay off. The author argues that tech CEOs are being dishonest about job creation, that white-collar workers in accounting, law, and consulting face severe displacement, and that programmers will remain busy but spread thinner across more projects. The post warns of 'The Fuckening'—a macroeconomically significant collapse in high-paying office jobs—and offers individualized survival advice: quantify your direct contribution to revenue, position yourself close to the money, and continuously reassess your value as AI tools improve.
