AI - Woman vs Machine - Girl Code @ Team Rockstars IT
Details
/// AI - Woman vs Machine ///
AI this, AI that. You can't open a news site without reading about AI. AI will take over all of our jobs: from screenwriter to software developer (so they fear). Amazon and Bol are flooded by cookbooks written by ChatGPT. Loan decisions at big banks are biased on gender and ethnicity, and so are hiring decisions, which turn out to have discriminatory outcomes, even though the 'machine' and not a human is making the decision. On the other hand AI software is making you passive income on the stock market (or at least for the guys, 'cause women were already excelling at that ;-))
BUT AI also increases the pace of software development, it brings intelligent automation which allows you to deliver changes more continuously, it will automate repetitive tasks for you, and help you with testing, debugging, analysing and discovering new chances for your products.
And the question that keeps people busy: will it replace humans? Will it be able to be as creative, intuitive and problem-solving as a human developer? Or will it stay your helpful assistant only?
Tonight will be all about AI. 'Cause AI is a hot topic and we are software developers!
