We stopped hiring engineers for coding ability

just wait for the inevitable crash and burn - stupid doesn't survive evolution for _that_ long.

LLMs are a force multiplier...

I have noticed that such hyped up announcements-cum-validation-seeking articles don't actually answer anything specific.

For example, they can't tell you in one sentence what they replaced the "coding ability" screening with.

More enshitification.

I understand the AI-aided productivity gains but don't take people for fools. Running AI models in a sandbox environment takes technical know-how. Companies never hired people just for coding ability.

Not surprising for an "AI" company to be on-board the hype train
