Sam Altman argued it was "already feels difficult to remember how much effort it really took" for coders to write software.

Altman’s remarks in his tweet drew an overwhelmingly negative reaction.

“You’re welcome,” one user responded. “Nice to know that our reward is our jobs being taken away.”

Others called him a “f***ing psychopath” and “scum.”

“Nothing says ‘you’re being replaced’ quite like a heartfelt thank you from the guy doing the replacing,” one user wrote.

      I really enjoyed that story, thanks for sharing. I don’t often read fiction, but I found myself drawn into that.

      For anyone who would like more context for what is linked, it’s a short sci-fi story (79 pages, according to the Kindle edition, 9 chapters when reading online). I give this context because I found myself confused at first, because OP gave no info besides the link, so I didn’t realise it was a fictional story I was reading

      I read almost all of the first chapter out of courtesy, but I could do with some introduction of what this is. The piece doesn’t even have a prologue and you just copypasted a link with no context. What’s this in general?
