Will AI Reduce Human Value in the Future?

Sat, 23 May 2026 12:39:07 +0000

Artificial Intelligence is growing rapidly, and many people fear that AI will replace humans in the future. From automated customer service to AI-generated content and self-driving technology, machines are now performing tasks that once required human effort. This raises an important question: will AI reduce the value of humans?

In my opinion, AI will not reduce humans completely, but it will change the way humans work. Technology has always replaced some jobs while creating new opportunities. In the past, machines replaced manual labor in factories, yet new industries and careers emerged. Similarly, AI may automate repetitive tasks, but it will also create demand for creative, technical, and strategic skills.

The biggest challenge is that many traditional jobs may disappear. Data entry, basic customer support, and repetitive office tasks are already being automated. People who fail to adapt may struggle in the future job market. Therefore, learning new skills will become more important than ever.

However, AI still cannot fully replace human creativity, emotions, leadership, and critical thinking. Humans can build relationships, make ethical decisions, and understand emotions in ways machines cannot. Professions like teaching, leadership, healthcare, design, and innovation will always need human involvement.

To succeed in the future, people should focus on continuous learning. Skills such as programming, digital marketing, communication, problem-solving, and creativity will become highly valuable. Instead of fearing AI, humans should learn how to work alongside it.

AI should be seen as a tool, not a replacement for humanity. Those who adapt and improve their skills will benefit the most from the AI revolution. The future will belong to people who can combine human intelligence with artificial intelligence to create smarter and more efficient solutions.

In conclusion, AI may change jobs and industries, but it cannot replace the true value of human creativity, emotions, and innovation. The key to the future is adaptation, learning, and using AI wisely to improve society rather than fear it.

AI is an industry-wide tech debt

Mon, 13 Apr 2026 20:21:33 +0000

Many years ago, I watched a talk about tech debt. The presenter argued about what counts as a tech debt and included any third-party dependency to the mix. His argument was the following - tech debt is created when we cut corners to deliver faster. If you adopt a library - a piece of code what you could write yourself, you do so to save time. You do so at the cost of a potential future liability. You often use open-source libraries where vulnerabilities get discovered and exploited. The maintainer might abandon the project, or they might do a licencing rug pull if they feel like everybody is using their work, and not giving them a dime.

I argue that AI is no different in this regard. It lets you rapidly "develop" code to meet business demands. However, there are fundamental limits to the current AI technology, limits that are very hard to circumvent, unless the technology itself changes:

data set poisoning - you cannot prove that the model you are using wasn't poisoned through a supply-chain attack on the learning infrastructure. The model can be trained to react to particular kinds of prompts to install backdoors or vulnerabilities into your code. Unless you know how to implement stuff properly, you have no way of validating the code.
lack of negative feedback loop - if your current business requirements contradict the previous business requirements, AI will happily oblige and silently break some edge case. Ask yourself - how many times have you tried to implement a feature, only to find out that trade-offs need to be made, or to find out that the requirements were poorly specified? AI won't tell you, or at the very least it won't tell you unless you ask. They only way to be sure is to implement the thing yourself.
inability to be consistent - somewhere I read that it is a good thing to first instruct the bot to formulate a plan of implementation, wait for approval, then carry on with the implementation. Claude Opus managed to follow this instruction for the first two requests and completely ignored it for the third time. Internet is full of stories where the bot suddently went haywire and went against the requirements in the prompt.
inability to be original - you tell AI to implement something. Do you believe it did it in the most safe and/or performant way possible? Think again. It wasn't trained on the "best practice" corpus (such thing doesn't exist), it was trained on the "common practice" one. It will give you mediocre, average outputs, not the great ones. Unless you know how to do it correctly, you have no way of telling.

They say that the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over
and over and expecting a different result. In that case, AI is
insanity.

All the techbros, CEOs, venture capitalists, opportunists, and influencers are trying to convince you that if you don't use AI, you're useless, antiquated, slow.

Sure, not using AI at all would be an extreme overreaction. AI can supercharge learning, analysis, and prototyping, if (emphasis on if) it is used responsibly. But many people don't use it responsibly. Agent AI which can do stuff "without any supervision" can also screw up anything.

What I am trying to say is - If you don't trust your junior devs and do code reviews after them, why would you blindly trusted something a machine randomly created?

If you are a developer

Use AI responsibly. I for example either use it to generate throwaway code, or I always manually refactor the code myself, just to force me to think about every single line. Just today, I was touching some CI pipelines and encountered a very long condition line in the YAML file.

I asked the bot if the line can be somehow pretty formatted. It obliged and used this weird >- operator. I asked back what it does. I asked for sources, and I went to those sources to study the operator. I don't want to be a passive prompter, I want to understand the code. Next time, I don't have to waste my time prompting the AI, I can just format it myself..

Generating scaffolding code is on the edge. I bet that you could write a deterministic tool that could do the scaffolding equally well, without fearing the bot just randomly screwing you over. If you let AI write the tests - do you read and reason about every single test case? Do you refactor the code so it doesn't just vomit tokens that would inflate your bills the next time you want to add a test case?

But for the love of god, if you let the bot generate production code and you don't even know what it produced - you are just tying a gun to your dick and giving somebody else the ability to pull the trigger.

If you are a manager

I know that most CEOs are just jacking off stakeholders and don't really care about the people they employ, but if you are a middle-to-bottom manager, you should care about your people. You should care about what drives them. And the reality is that most of those nerds are coding because they love the act of coding and they hate delegating the work and explaining the business requirements. So why would you force them into doing exactly that with AI? You're just going to kill their motivation.

And for those who are diving head first into the AI-driven submarine, keep an eye on them. Us humans are a very lazy bunch. The moment we are allowed to stop thinking for ourselves is the moment we would sell our souls to the devil. Why do you think there are so many autocracies around the world? People are lazy. People like when somebody else thinks for them. People only want change when the emperor makes their lives miserable.

I honestly fear that people who unapologetically like to use AI and see agentic development as something good will grow dumb. There are already studies out there saying that cognitive functions deteriorate when you rely on AI (and most of the facilities on the modern internet).

Also, do hire juniors

Anybody who refuses to hire junior developers because AI can replace them is a retard. Sorry, not sorry. Experienced developers don't grow on trees. They grow on battlefields. They learned by writing code. They learned by negotiating with customers, and product managers, and CTOs. If you refuse to hire juniors and teach them, you are creating a tech debt worse than AI-generated code. You are contributing to the lack of experienced developers down the line and I hope your business will bankrupt hard (I just pity people who will stick with you up until that point).

Also - maybe consider forbidding your juniors from using AI to generate code. Learning? Okay. Understanding your code base? Great. Writing boring documentation? Abso-fucking-lutely. But no code generation. They need to experience it for themselves. They need to learn why patterns exists, how to refactor code and how to notice code smells. If they don't learn it the hard way, they won't be able to direct anybody, let alone an agentic chatbot.

Feel free to tell me how backward-thinking loser I am down in the comments below.

Will AI take our jobs?

Thu, 09 Apr 2026 05:18:17 +0000

We all hear this everywhere:

“AI will take our jobs.”

But is that really true?

Let’s talk about reality.

AI is not your enemy.
It’s a tool—the most powerful tool of this era.

And like every major technology shift in history…
it’s changing the way we work, not eliminating work itself.

Today, AI can:
• Automate repetitive tasks
• Help write code faster
• Analyze large amounts of data in seconds
• Assist in decision-making

But here’s what it can’t replace:

Human creativity
Critical thinking
Emotional intelligence
Real-world problem solving

That’s where you come in.

The truth is:

AI won’t replace you.
But someone using AI might.

The real risk is not AI…
It’s staying the same while the world is evolving.

If we don’t learn it, we get left behind.
If we do learn it, we move ahead

Tools don’t take opportunities away—
they create new ones for those who know how to use them.

AI is not here to be your master.
It’s here to be your advantage.

The question is:

Will you ignore it… or learn it?

What do you think—threat or opportunity?

Let’s talk

IS 2026 THE END OF PROGRAMMING

Fri, 06 Feb 2026 08:32:04 +0000

So yeah — everyone is talking about the end of the coding era, with the big names like Meta spear heading the charge to lay off employees and replace them with Ai(Artificial Intelligence), and even proofs looking at scenarios where Ai perfroms better and faster tending to replace junior devs in some tasks. But a question remains buzzing to tech and non tech savvy minds alike, and that is -.

Will Ai Replace Programmers Soon Or Not!

To answer this enigmatic like question — we first need to understand the currently existing various types of Ai(Artificial Intelligence) helping us to perfectly understand their strength in the field.

As of current Ai Is divided into 3 broad concepts.

● The Narrow Ai

● The Broad Ai

● The General Ai

Narrow Ai — Narrow Ai’s are those types of Ai’s that are dedicated to a specific task, in order to help in that domain e.g a chatbot based Ai agent or the famous Siri Apple assistant.

Broad Ai — These Ai’s(Artificial Intelligence) thrive in beating humans in a good number of tasks e.g giving out info(LLM’s — Large Language Models, Llma(Meta), or creating highly viual designs(Image Generation, Nano Bannana).

Super Ai — Super Ai’s are the next gen of Artificial Intelligence which are depicted to totally outclass humans in a lot of tasks and are even being depicted to (overtake humans — subdue) in some movies like terminator.

But what are we saying, from the first two categories of Ai’s - talking from a neutral perspective it is not likely that these kind of machines have the capability to totally replace humans as although some of them are trained and built in replica to human brains e.g (CNN — Convolutional Neural Networks), the human sense of doing still possesses a wide range of capabilities in which an Ai can not just duplicate, a very good example of that is — emotional intelligence.

We can only hope to see what the future holds for its programmers and Ai.

Quick Ai Facts
•Ai is depicted to impact the worlds economy with trillions of dollars by 2030

•The term Ai was intially coined by John McCharthy

Today, most of us talk to AI alone. Quietly. Privately.

Thu, 08 Jan 2026 05:38:22 +0000

But what if the next phase of AI doesn’t isolate us?

What if it brings us together?

Picture this.

It’s 3:00 AM.

You’re talking to an LLM about a relationship problem that strangely feels like debugging code.

The model pauses and asks:

“Do you want to talk to someone else who’s dealing with the same thing?”

You hesitate.

Then you say yes.

The AI introduces you to a small group.

It stays in the chat - cracking a light joke, dropping the right meme, asking the right question at the right moment.

By 3:15 AM, you’ve:

Seen your problem from a new perspective
Made a couple of unexpected friends

That’s not AI replacing humans.

That’s AI amplifying human connection.

What do we need to do to make it technically feasible?

It demands longer contexts, multi-human reinforcement learning, and possibly even new architectures such as extreme Mixture-of-Experts systems.

But the path is real.

What do you think - If we get this right, can AI help us be more human, together?

The Evolution of AI Memory: From Context Windows to True Long-Term Memory

Thu, 11 Sep 2025 20:52:22 +0000

The Evolution of AI Memory: From Context Windows to True Long-Term Memory
Artificial intelligence has come a long way, but one thing has always held it back: memory. Large Language Models (LLMs) are great at short conversations, yet they quickly forget earlier parts of an interaction. This makes them inconsistent, repetitive, and unable to handle tasks that need continuity like planning projects, writing books, or learning from experience.

1. The Purpose:
Bridging the Gap Between Short-Term and Long-Term Understanding

Traditional LLMs operate primarily within a fixed context window. This means they only consider a limited number of tokens (words or sub-words) from the immediate past input when generating a response. While effective for short exchanges, this approach struggles with:

- Inconsistency: Forgetting information from earlier parts of a conversation, leading to contradictory statements.

- Repetition: Generating redundant information because the model has "forgotten" it previously mentioned it.

- Lack of Long-Term Planning: Inability to perform tasks requiring long-term memory, such as writing a novel or managing a complex project.

- Inability to Learn from Experience: Difficulty in retaining and applying knowledge gained from past interactions to improve future performance.

The goal of long-term memory solutions is to address these limitations by enabling AI agents to:

Persistently store and retrieve information.
Reason about and integrate new information with existing knowledge.
Adapt and improve their performance over time based on past experiences.
Maintain consistent and coherent interactions across extended periods.

Features:
Paths Toward Long-Term Memory

Different approaches are emerging, each with its strengths:

Vector Databases: Store past text as embeddings (vectors) in databases like Chroma or Pinecone. Useful for retrieving relevant info later.

Memory Networks: Neural networks with external “memory slots” that can read/write information for more fine-grained recall.

Knowledge Graphs: Represent info as entities and relationships, enabling reasoning and connections between ideas.

Summarization/Compression: Condense past conversations into shorter summaries that fit within context windows, though some detail may be lost.

3. Code Example:

Implementing Vector Database-Based Long-Term Memory with Langchain and Chroma
This example demonstrates how to implement a simple long-term memory system using Langchain, Chroma, and OpenAI embeddings.

Installation:

pip install langchain chromadb openai tiktoken

Code:

import os
import openai
from langchain.embeddings.openai import OpenAIEmbeddings
from langchain.vectorstores import Chroma
from langchain.text_splitter import CharacterTextSplitter
from langchain.document_loaders import TextLoader
from langchain.chains import RetrievalQA

# Set your OpenAI API key
os.environ["OPENAI_API_KEY"] = "YOUR_OPENAI_API_KEY"
openai.api_key = os.environ["OPENAI_API_KEY"]

# 1. Load and split the document
loader = TextLoader("data.txt") # Replace data.txt with your text file
documents = loader.load()
text_splitter = CharacterTextSplitter(chunk_size=1000, chunk_overlap=0)
texts = text_splitter.split_documents(documents)

# 2. Create embeddings and store in Chroma
embeddings = OpenAIEmbeddings()
db = Chroma.from_documents(texts, embeddings, persist_directory="chroma_db") # Store in chroma_db directory
db.persist() # Persist the database to disk

# 3. Load the persisted database
db = Chroma(persist_directory="chroma_db", embedding_function=embeddings)

# 4. Create a retrieval QA chain
qa = RetrievalQA.from_chain_type(
    llm=openai.Completion.create, # Use OpenAI Completion API
    chain_type="stuff",  # "stuff" simply stuffs all retrieved documents into the prompt
    retriever=db.as_retriever(),
    chain_type_kwargs={"prompt": "You are a helpful assistant. Answer the question based on the context provided:\n{context}\nQuestion: {question}\nAnswer:"}
)

# 5. Ask questions
query = "What is the main topic of the document?"
result = qa.run(query)
print(f"Question: {query}")
print(f"Answer: {result}")

query = "Who are the key people mentioned in the document?"
result = qa.run(query)
print(f"Question: {query}")
print(f"Answer: {result}")

Explanation:

Load and Split Document: Loads a text file and splits it into smaller chunks using CharacterTextSplitter. This is important for managing the size of the data sent to the embedding model.
Create Embeddings and Store in Chroma: Uses OpenAIEmbeddings to generate vector embeddings for each chunk of text. These embeddings are then stored in a Chroma vector database. persist_directory specifies where the database will be saved on disk.
Load Persisted Database: Loads the previously saved Chroma database. This is crucial for accessing the long-term memory in subsequent interactions.
Create RetrievalQA Chain: Creates a RetrievalQA chain from Langchain. This chain combines the LLM (in this case, OpenAI Completion API) with the vector database to answer questions based on the retrieved information. The chain_type="stuff" specifies that all retrieved documents will be included in the prompt sent to the LLM. The chain_type_kwargs allows customization of the prompt.
Ask Questions: The qa.run(query) method sends a query to the LLM, retrieves relevant documents from the vector database, and generates an answer based on the retrieved context.

4. Installation:

Setting Up the Environment

The code example utilizes several libraries:

Langchain: A framework for building applications powered by LLMs.
Chroma: An open-source embedding database.
OpenAI: For accessing OpenAI's embedding and language models.
tiktoken: For tokenizing text.

To install these libraries, use pip:

pip install langchain chromadb openai tiktoken

You will also need an OpenAI API key. Sign up for an account at https://platform.openai.com/ and obtain your API key from the API keys section. Remember to set the OPENAI_API_KEY environment variable.

5. Conclusion:

The Future of AI Memory giving AI real memory isn’t just a technical upgrade—it’s a game-changer. Instead of treating every conversation as brand new, future systems will learn, adapt, and stay consistent over time. Techniques like vector databases, memory networks, and knowledge graphs are early steps, but the destination is clear: AI that doesn’t just respond, but actually remembers.
