95% of the industry wasn't creating creative value, it was repetitive.

* auth + RBAC, known problem, just needs integration

* 3rd party integration, they have API, known problem, just needs integration

* make webpage responsive, millions of CSS lines

* even video gaming, most engines are already written, just add your character and call couple of APIs to move them in the 3D space

So true.

You can only complain about creativity if you were actually being creative. 99.99999% of the industry was not.

But sure, for the 0.000001% of the industry coming up with new deep learning algorithms instead of just TF/PyTorch monkey-ing, maybe the LLMs won’t help as much as a good foundation in some pretty esoteric mathematics.

That's why they bring a lot of value. Plus, new models and methods enable solutions that weren't available a decade ago.

Not sure what 95% of the industry created, but it did bring liquidity in my bank account and a roof over my head.

now what?
