Here are five ways that forward-thinking software engineers can immediately start to leverage AI for critical activities along the software-development life cycle and seven ways that software engineering leaders can prepare their teams to sustainably integrate AI from planning to testing. If you don't want AI to take your job, use AI for your job?
I'm not sure about that logic, but it's Gartner, so it must be correct.

repetitive tasks that don't require big deals and are not product / safety / quality critical might be a good idea to use it. As every tool has its legit use cases.
But for important things... better fingers off (for a good while).

US inflation-adjusted salaries plummet to a five-year low. Jobseekers are adjusting preferences. Economic conditions and the introduction of Generative AI threaten junior and diverse talent. Demand shifts to lower-cost-of-living markets. "But if you ask for a rise, it's no surprise that they're giving none away"

A new report shows that the non-fungible token (NFT) market has essentially collapsed, and nearly all NFTs are practically worthless. Who (almost everyone) could have foreseen this?

Am I missing something? That article seems to imply that RAR support will not be part of this update. 
Quote: There are a bunch of features that are missing from this update, though. We thought this would be Microsoft’s larger 23H2 update dropping on September 26th, but that’s coming a little later and will include some even bigger changes to Windows 11. A new volume mixer is on the way, alongside native RAR and 7-zip support, Dynamic Lighting for controlling RGB accessories, and even app labels and ungrouping for the Windows 11 taskbar.

If attackers have compromised your account, they can use inbox rules to hide in plain sight while they — among other things — quietly move information out of the network via your inbox, ensure that you don’t see security warnings, file selected messages in obscure folders so you won’t easily find them, or delete messages from the senior executive they are pretending to be in an attempt to extract money. Would they be so kind as to delete all the spam for me while they're in there?

Writing a suite of unit tests that exhaustively exercise and validate the logic of the code is not easy. Why test your code, when the code can test itself?
Or not, as the Windows Update team does.

Intel CEO Pat Gelsinger used his keynote at the chip giant's Innovation conference in San Jose on Tuesday to repeatedly hammer home the idea of running large language models and other machine-learning workloads, like Llama 2 or Stable Diffusion, locally, privately, and securely on users' own PCs. They have a bunch of old math coprocessor chips for that
