I wouldn’t wish it on anyone else.
As you may or may not know, I was a software developer for over seven years. I wasn’t the most senior worker in the market, but I could quickly and independently work on almost any feature you threw at me.
I worked for local and international banks, had independent clients as a freelancer, and even got a remote job for a company in England (one of the highest achievements for a Latin American worker).
My life was practically sorted.
I made more money than I could spend in my Caribbean country, I traveled wherever I wanted, I took all the vacations I wanted, and there was nothing that money couldn’t solve.
I was one of the people who resisted AI, and that cost me my career.
But as you can see from the title of this article, AI came into the world, and I lost my job.
I was one of the people who resisted AI, and that cost me my career.
When AI tools became mainstream, the CEO of the company I worked for at the time forced every department to start using this new technology.
The board and the management team read everywhere that AI was helping developers build features faster and that workers were becoming 60% more productive with these tools.
