Your job is to make an AI that will replace you

Your job is to make an AI that will replace you: Google co-founder Sergey Brin has '"encouraged engineers to use Google’s own AI models to write their code, arguing that doing so would make them “the most efficient coders and A.I. scientists in the world.” This directive aligns with a broader trend where tech leaders are promoting AI tools as a means to enhance productivity, but it also exposes a deeper irony: Brin is effectively asking engineers to use the same technology that might eventually make their roles redundant'.
We might have seen peak employment for the next 50 years. In Nigeria, I know that is the case. Today, banks deliver huge numbers even with a smaller number of staff. That trajectory is the new normal as machines become our colleagues at work!
