And people said Microsoft will save Blizzard

Most of the people laid off have been CS, recruiters and other non programming related roles, if you actually took the time to make a small research you would know.

which is kinda tragic in itself with how many people decided to swap to IT/dev/programing in past decade.

now a lot of them will become jobless and told to pursue other careers.

its early 2024 - it wasnt untill 2023 when wide public even learned abut chatgpt3

just wait 2-3 yars for like chatgpt 5 or 6

corporations see what is happening and are already preparing for future not for what we have now.

i seen this in my pevious company - how oblivious that industry was towards what the future of design will be with use of holographs etc in design process .

future is comming much faster then peopel dare to imagine

not yet. sure.

same like 15 years ago mobile phones were nothing like current gens of smartphones - sure it stagnated now but the technological jump which went between 2010 and 2020 was crazy in what wide population use

same will be with AI. there is no going back now.

Yes we do, the company will act in the interest of its shareholers. After a merger restructuring inevitably happens to cut costs and increase returns for shareholders. There can only be one leader. Bobby Kotick will retire. Likely already happened.

GPTs cannot match the critical thinking and problem-solving skills of programmers. While GPTs can generate coherent and logical text, they cannot reason or solve problems in the same way that humans can. They are chat bots.

Tabnine is an AI-driven coding assistant that boosts productivity by enabling developers to write code quickly and effectively. It’s compatible with numerous programming languages like Python, Java, JavaScript, PHP, Go, and Rust, making it one of our list’s most robust AI coding assistants.

OpenAI Codex is the most prominent AI code tool available today. It’s based on OpenAI’s LLMs (GPT-3 and GPT-4) and is trained on billions of lines of code. The tool is proficient in more than a dozen programming languages.

CodeT5 is an open AI code generator that helps developers to create reliable and bug-free code quickly and easily.

Microsoft and Cambridge University researchers have developed Artificial Intelligence that can write code and called it DeepCoder.

These AI are used the generate test code quickly. ChatGPT is not the only AI available.

AI might be able to generate code more quickly than a human developer, “but a human team member needs to verify that the AI-generated code is free of errors, security vulnerabilities, or copyright issues before it goes to production,” they said. AI algorithms can generate complex and efficient code, but it may not always be written in a way that is easy for humans to read and understand.

Thats probably why the post wasnt intelligent

All companies will act in the interest of its shareholers. Blizzard is not in any trouble atm. Microsoft doesnt need to save Blizzard. If it did, then aquiring blizzard wouldnt have been on the cards. Blizzard has value to Microsoft’s shareholers. Shareholders that will expect a return. Dont help Dejarous feed the trolls.

What else are we supposed to do during the weekend but feed the trolls? The forums are a free for all until Monday and they know it

I’m so tired of ‘shareholders’. I get that it’s the way the world works but they don’t exactly help. Bugger off out of my nerd space with all your financial considerations! :smile:

He went a month ago.

WOW! JUST 1 WEEK?!?!

You do realize other people suffer that stress for months?

The system doesnt work which is why there are problems like climate change. Its in the interest of shareholders to pollute and to treat the damage as an externality. Basically climate change affects third parties that dont benefit or profit from the transaction but who bare costs because of the transaction. Climate change leads to economic collapse and the end of advanced human civilization.

You have every right not to like such a system.

Did you just read a small part of what was said, or what? Missed the context or something?

Bit premature to decide that. And besides, Activision left a mess. Maybe Microsoft will be worse, hard to do that given how utterly crappy Activision was but anything is possible. However there’s no actual evidence to say right now. Dunno what the hell you on about?

I believe Mircosoft will add World of Warcraft as part of the xbox game pass. Then bring world of warcraft to console. If more players are added to world of warcraft, thats a good thing.

No, I read the entire comment and you said “it was pure stress for an entire week” due to you buying a house 5 months before… Others may have it worse with more than 1 week not having a job while being in debt due to buying a house or property… Just saying.

I really doubt they will ever do crossplay tho.

Otherwise they would have to remove all addon support, which would KILL WoW due to bad customer service.

can’t be worse than this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DP8bLpsUn4o&ab_channel=MEMEBEYOND ←

Still few people remain resposible for this burst fiesta which lost milions subs… Fire them alll ! They could take actions… but nothing happened.
