Emad Mostaque, the CEO of Stability AI, declared that the incorporation of AI will cause a major reduction in the number of Indian coders. According to Mostaque, the impact of AI on engineering occupations will differ from nation to nation, and those in France likely won't experience as much upheaval as those in India. Further, Mostaque went on to say that "outsourced coders up to level three programmers will be gone in the next year or two, whereas in France, you'll never fire a developer."
Emad Mostaque, CEO of Stability AI, stated that most outsourced programmers in India will experience job loss over the course of the next year or two due to the surge of AI technology. Speaking to UBS analysts during a call, Mostaque detailed, “If you’re doing a job in front of a computer, and no one ever sees you, then it’s massively impactful, because these models are like really talented grads.” He noted that the affect on jobs varies in different countries, with countries with stronger labor laws, like France, faring better than India where coders up to level three will be out of work. Citing a Bloomberg report, Mostaque claimed that up to five million software programmers in India are likely to feel the brunt of this shift to AI. CEO
India, the second-largest country in Asia, is a preferred destination for corporates that move back-office jobs and other roles overseas. Firms such as Silicon Valley tech companies, Wall Street banks, airlines, and retailers all outsource work to Indian companies.Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) is India's leading outsourcing firm. Other names in the list include Infosys and Wipro.TCS has made a strong commitment to generative AI and is training more than 25,000 engineers on the technology via Microsoft's Azure Open AI service to "enable their clients to speed up the adoption of this advanced technology".N. Ganapathy Subramaniam, the CEO of TCS, informed CNBC Thursday that around four years back, the organization adopted a "machine-first" approach towards task completion. Subramaniam added that AI will make a "significant effect on the way we work and do things".Generative AI has taken this a step forward, according to Subramaniam."In the next five years, there won’t be any coders in the conventional sense," Mostaque declared, clarifying that coders’ roles are replaced by AI "co-pilots". He stated that AI can do the concepts like testing, unit testing, and ideation better and faster. "But why would you have to write code when computers can do it better?," Mostaque posed. "This is the balance that we have to understand, as different fields are affected differently."At CNBC, Subramaniam said that AI will have an "enormous influence" on the way we carry out activities.
