Not who you asked, but yes? The first thing most people notice is the aesthetics, regardless of the technical achievements. This is doubly true of people that lack the technical skills to understand how difficult it is (perhaps a Dunning Kruger adjunct).

So, not only will there be no "better" jobs, but it'll eliminate jobs in other verticals too, so the ultimate success of AI would be marked by the elimination of humans from all kinds of productivity.

Most of my career was spent building automation software for various industries, and I always struggled with jobs being eliminated, but offset by increased productivity and moving jobs "up" the stack.
AI seems bent on eliminating not only the jobs, but categorically eliminating work/compensation.

As a Canadian, I think we get a say on the topic?
The population of Minnesota would bankrupt any province's health system overnight, and your health institutions are optimized for profit.

I hope they forget to deflate the Foley before removal too.
More seriously, maybe they could surgically install spines for them? There seems to be a shortage.

Agreed, and Microsoft senior engineers agree. The rate of AI slop commits is paralyzing the code review process (and this is just on the public facing OS stuff):

I've never had good luck with PLA for mechanical parts. Anything with constant strain on it creeps and ultimately fails. I really like ABS, despite the stink. It's much more dimensionally stable (aside from deformation while printing).
