Just coders you say? I would think it would replace most of the people working in Indian call centers as well. Most of them basically regurgitate written talking points out of a script.
Indian Coders will be fine, i have been hearing about AI replacing us developers for almost a decade. Hell it was even a concern my dad brought up when i decided to study computer science.

Indian call centers well they will be fucked, theres an ongoing discussion within developer community about optimising code, framework, library etc documentation for AI queries. This will directly translate to call center work either being optimised or replaced by AI. Given the massive amount of recorded calls that call centers have accumulated over the years i wouldn't be surprised they will do voice to text over those recordings and train AI on it.

Why i think coders will be fine is that chat-gpt is still way too slow if it take multiple seconds to get an answer it not efficient enough.
I already get annoyed if my language server takes 100s ms to give suggestions.
Also good luck deploying software on live production servers, debugging massively distributed microservice software landscape. Imaging having to diagnose and repair multiple parallel driving trucks at the same time while moving cargo(data) between those trucks(micro services..).

Could A.I. effectively scam people as well?
Short answer is yes. A.I. is ultimately trained by people. If it is trained by scammers, it could eventually learn to scam. To scam effectively, it'll take some time for the A.I. to learn to do so. Though, knowing how stupid some people can get these days, I won't be surprised that some people will get scammed by A.I. sometime soon.

India’s trade with China slowed down a bit in dollar terms in the first half of 2023. This is probably due more to a decline in commodity prices and the depreciation of the yuan against the dollar than any actual fall in the volume of goods exchanged.

In dollar terms, imports from China fell marginally in the first half of 2023 from the same period last year. But a closer examination of the data suggests the actual volume of imports may have increased

Sam Altman is dead wrong. India can definitely train a foundational model that is useful and makes money. Just feed it training data from the Indian call scam centers. Imagine the cost savings it will bring.
While I despise the dismissive and arrogant attitude of Sam Altman, he is responding to the equally arrogant and ignorant question of the Indian asker. That Indian asked if India could build a "truly substantial" A.I. from scratch with 3 "super smart Indian engineers" and with only a $10million budget. Sorry India, you may have "super smart engineers", but with a only a pitiful budget of $10million, they are gonna go to other more countries who are more serious in A.I. development. Like maybe, the US or god-forbid, China?

Only India thinks it can become a superpower in everything with pennies budget and a loud mouth.

The 3 super smart Indians engineers are currently in US.
