> Software engineers are getting laid off because of advancements made by AI.

The bean counters laying off software engineers ought to take notes from the frontier labs' own hiring practices. They're still hiring lots of humans for business and engineering roles even when they would be better positioned than anyone to automate away those jobs with their world-class models (https://openai.com/careers/search/).

They're hiring now. Clearly some researchers at OpenAI believe we'll eventually all be unemployed: https://x.com/alexbronzini/status/2103846255227175288

		"OpenAI is hiring software engineers, therefore all companies will continue to hire engineers" Generalization fallacy, survivorship bias, etc.
