      Company – “we over relied on AI without realising it doesn’t work like we imagined and is a pile of shit, now everything is broken, please help fix it!”

      IT professional – “No worries, here’s my rates.”

      FINALLY!!!!!! I knew if I remained in the game long enough the tide would turn.

      I started an it consultancy company for businesses that want to integrate AI in their automations earlier this year.

      The IT business it good right now. If you know what you’re doing with AI you can generate serious value for businesses and get paid some very good money.

      One thought is that agent assisted coding is creating a kind of Jevons paradox – massive increase in productivity which is unlocking more demand for software engineers. I’m experiencing this first hand, the time it takes me to take my problem solving idea in my brain and write it as code is reducing significantly.

      It’s already happening. Companies that outsourced their IT have realised just how much of a risk it is and are scrambling to bring people back.

      Wait until people find out this actually means IT professionals in India because they are cheaper, the fact that 90% of them are beyond atrocious is irrelevant when it comes to the bottom line.

      Get ready for Robert from ‘the ends’ and his fellow Reform voters (who never finished high school), blaming the incoming tech professionals for stealing their jobs.

      We shall see how this plays out. Typically in the UK this means lots more entry level positions expected to do mid to high level work.

      Never have I experienced a wave of “let me give you more money for your current skill set” even when my current skill set is measurably kept up to speed year on year.

      Even when moving company, you’re looking at marginal salary increases from company to company especially in the midlands, which hardly outweighs the risks of checking if the grass is greener or losing the benefits of being at your current company for a solid period.

      FTFY: UK see for sharp demand in *cheap Indian IT professionals*

      Oh really? AI not working out for these organisations that jumped on the bandwagon to automate everything?

      In the UK, this often translates to entry-level roles being burdened with mid to senior responsibilities to some extent. I’ve never seen a trend where employers offer higher pay for existing expertise, even when skills are consistently updated. Even when switching companies particularly where I live in the North salary growth depends on negotiation, market rate etc.

      I was on a security training course earlier this year. The guy running it was a top international expert in cyber security, and he gave what I think is a likely very accurate opinion on AI and employment.

      He said through 2025 we’re going to see massive layoffs, especially in technical roles, justified with the use of AI to replace those staff.

      Then in 2026 we’re going to see a massive boom in security incidents, data breaches, and downtime caused by zero or minimal supervision AI creating massive vulnerabilities.

      In 2027 we’ll see a bumper year for hiring of technical staff as companies realise they need to people to do the work, and also need more staff to go back through everything AI did for them in the last couple of years and fix any vulnerabilities.

      So just stay the course if you can, the market is in a bad state right now for a variety of factors but it won’t stay that way forever.

      Yes, from about ~~October~~ December 2028, when they realise that the UK e-invoicing mandate is getting a bit close, if my experience with other countries is anything to go by…

      > according to new research from recruitment firm Robert Half

      I bet they do.

      And with the deals with India, we will fill that with Indian IT “professionals”

      But job adverts still “Required: 5 years experience in <framework that has only existed for 2 years>”

      First bit of good news for the tech sector in almost 2 years if true

      Typical IT centric report. What we need more of is Information specialists, which is allied but very different. We need more data scientists, more information managers and more librarians, not necessarily more IT folks (although we need those as well).

      That site is horrific. The EU are bringing in privacy policies next year to stop these “dark patterns” and I’d hope the UK follows suit.

      I’d doubt it’s even GDPR compliant
