The title is a bit misleading. Reading the article, the argument seems to be that entry-level applicants (are expected to) have the highest AI literacy, so they want them to drive AI adoption.
At least today, I expect this will fail horribly. The challenge today isn't AI literacy in my experience, its domain knowledge required to keep LLMs on the rails.
It certainly feels that way. I was there. Fortunately had just waltzed into the tech side of things and scurried off back to my professional career for a couple of years.
I watched a lot of stuff burn. It was horrifying. We are nearly there again.
Yeah similar story here. I had to spend a couple of years painting houses before the local market recovered enough that tech jobs were a thing again. Shit was surreal. There was one guy I knew that went from building multi-million dollar server and networking projects for IBM to literally working as unskilled labor on a fencing crew just to make rent.
I just run sub agents in parallel. Yesterday I used Codex for the first time yesterday. I spun up 350,640 agents and got 10 years of experience in 15 minutes.
