when I preach about AI I'm not selling anything, or saying that everybody and your grandma will be making their own apps one day, or that classical coding is dead.

what I'm trying to say as urgently as I can is that if you're a coder and you're not all in into AI-assisted coding, then I hope you're an irreplaceable genius with some sort of extremely valuable and rare skill

... or you're 100% cooked

I've been coding my entire life. this is by far the biggest change I've witnessed. it's going to rip apart the job market for coders first.

as a colleague I tell you this: if you don't learn to master these new methods today, you're going to be flipping burgers in 5 years. guaranteed.

Made a really good living as a software developer from 1994-2020, then retired. So glad I got out before the advent of AI. I still code for fun on hobby projects but dang, if I still needed income from coding gigs, I’d be toast! I’d never advise a young person to get into the industry.

I have never met an anyone that is genuinely more productive with AI. They’ve definitely been faster at chiming out slop, though.

Bad programmers existed in the days of the search engine, in the days of stack overflow copy/pasting, and will exist in the days of AI

Yep I am going so much faster now with these tools. It's unreal and so fun

The job market for real coders is only going to grow because of all the ai slop code being produced. The majority of people using AI to make code are not coders and they will need help to fix all the mistakes the ai makes.

Spot on. At the same time, seeing the level of privacy wrecking, lies, manipulation & self-preservation strategies that the most advanced LLM's are already capable of, there should be a growing need for "human-only AI(r) gapped developed code", and for mesh networks where AI agents are "personAI no...

This is a sad reality for me tbh, but I'm learning to accept it

Favorite tool and/or LLM for vibe coding?

I half agree. Ok maybe a bit less than half. It's awesome and groundbreaking. If you let it code a project from the get go it's a throw away project(as of now), excellent to explore ideas and for quick personal tools. It gets the structure of the core abstractions and the basic ideas massively w...

Very true, like this movie explain it was for the first computer vs human mathematical calculations : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hidden_Figures It is the same conclusion, adapt to it or you are "dead".

Right, because people who flip burgers will never be replaced by robots πŸ˜‚

Well, luckily you can always start, get inspired and learn to do something else and totally different.. There are endless possibilities between coding and flipping burgers. Question is, what do you really want to do, how you spend your time and what for. πŸ€—πŸ™

English has now become the most powerful programming language.
