Glad i haven’t paid a dime to Spotify in years. Thanks to choices.
When the bar for “best” is on the floor…
“Our security is wiiiiide open, come help yourselves!” – Spotify
„As a concrete example, an engineer at Spotify on their morning commute from Slack on their cell phone can tell Claude to fix a bug or add a new feature to the iOS app,” Söderström said. “And once Claude finishes that work, the engineer then gets a new version of the app, pushed to them on Slack on their phone, so that he can then merge it to production, all before they even arrive at the office.“
is this supposed to be impressive? who the fuck wants to work before they even get to work or literally merge unreviewed production code? sounds like absolute BS.
Instead, their best developers are reviewing output from AI used by other developers?
Well, they also haven’t received a cent of my money for a year now. Looks like I made a solid decision.
I’m not sure why they think that is something to brag about.
Imagine being a developer at Spotify whose pushed some commits in the past month, and then reading this headline.
Not the flex they think it is….
So the cost of Spotify premium should be dropping any day now.
Yeah, we can tell.
Merging something straight to prod surely goes perfectly
This reads like pure bs that people tell the ceo to get him off their back
And now there’s another reason to delete that app

This sounds a whole lot like someone with knowledge and experience demoed their ci/cd pipeline and called it ‚AI‘ to get someone without knowledge or experience off their back about ‚AI‘.
„That’s so cool! And that was AI (artificial intelligence)?“
„Sure boss. That was AI (Automated Integration).“
This is why it started crashing the mobile app then.
What happens when they eventually fire all the people who know the code and are just left with the people running the AI and the AI inevitably hallucinates and makes shit up causing errors?
As someone who quit Spotify because its AI was absolute garbage, this makes total sense.
Has anyone noticed these pro-AI propaganda articles popping up everywhere since the AI backlash really started to kick off?
This isn’t the flex you think it is
I don’t believe this. I assume it’s some carefully worded bullshit.
CEOs are just fucking salivating about AI replacing people, so they keep saying it’s working.
I haven’t written a line of code since December, either, and I didn’t even need AI for that.
And it shows….
In fairness management at my company haven’t a fucking clue what work is actually done by staff here either
Fuck Spotify, fuck AI vibe code nonsense. I’m about done with computers and technology bro. Idk why I even try to attempt to finish my IT degree. There isn’t any place for a human with “no experience”.
I’ll take „things that never happened for $100, Alex.“ Spotify publishing complete lies for no reason at all.
thats not a flex but okay
„We haven’t even considered innovating our service in months. Now give us more money. „
Say less. Uninstalled.
Is this why my spotify can’t play podcasts without rewinding ~15 seconds every few minutes?
And they just raised the price.

Is that supposed to be a flex? For me that’s a huge red flag.
Glad I haven’t paid a dime to spotify for years and will not have a plan to do so
This doesn’t sound like a good thing, nor does it seem at all believable
