Mark Zuckerberg: AI Will Replace Mid-Level Engineers
By 2025, AI will replace mid-level engineers, according to Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg in a recent interview with Joe Rogan.
“Probably in 2025, we at Meta, as well as the other companies that are basically working on this, are going to have an AI that can effectively be a sort of mid-level engineer that you have at your company that can write code.” The tech mogul said.
He believes AI can handle coding duties so that human engineers can concentrate on more complex issues and creative endeavors.
Zuckerberg depicted a not-too-distant future in which the AI that powers Meta’s apps will be created by AI. Although Meta will incur upfront costs, Zuckerberg thinks the move will be worthwhile.
This change might cause a decline in the need for mid-level coding positions. In addition, software developers may be pushed to take on more strategic duties.
Zuckerberg added that individuals will be able to do more creative things and be more liberated to do somewhat insane things in the future.
The Role of Artificial Intelligence in the Tech Industry
Mark Zuckerberg isn’t the only one who has this vision. Google and other tech behemoths have begun incorporating AI into their coding procedures.
Last year, the CEO of Google, Sundar Pichai, stated that over 25% of the company’s new code was AI-generated. However, they were supervised by human workers.
This means that coding may no longer be a lucrative and secure career choice as the AI race heats up.
Mid-level engineers at Meta currently make a lot of money—around mid-six figures. With artificial intelligence taking over, that type of compensation may soon be unthinkable.
This is turning out to be a major cause of concern among industry employees. Especially computer science graduates who are trying to take on junior roles in the sector.
Among the many improvements Zuckerberg is doing at Meta is this AI announcement. Earlier this week, he announced that he plans to replace third-party fact-checkers with “community notes.” This is similar to what Elon Musk’s X (formerly Twitter) is doing.
Additionally, Meta intends to reduce the scope of its diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) programs.
“We will no longer have a team focused on DEI,” Janelle Gale, Meta’s VP of HR, wrote in a memo to the firm’s employees.
It isn’t surprising that these moves are attracting criticisms from the public.
Fact-checking organizations referred to these changes as “a step backward.”. They warned that Meta’s laissez-faire attitude could open the floodgates for false information.
