I think it’s so funny how people keep reducing the AI argument: “Software engineers are done in less than 5 years, AI will take all of your jobs” - *doesn’t and/or won’t happen* “Well it doesn’t need to take your job, it just needs to make it a much less valuable skill, so you won’t get paid for it anymore” - software engineering and coding still a highly valuable and complex skill to learn “…well it doesn’t need to make it a less valuable skill, it just needs to reduce how many engineers are needed to accomplish a task! Yeah that’s it!” - more efficiency leads to increased productivity, not significantly impacting the availability of roles “……alright well, it actually doesn’t need to reduce how many engineers we need… it just needs to… uh, saturate the market with juniors and other lay people!” - non-trained people still can’t code or understand software complexity. Companies continue to hire qualified candidates “……….well, I guess AI really hasn’t had the impact we thought it would on the software engineering industry. Better pack it up and grift on artists instead!” 😂

46:46 - I went to the learning center at my university for calculus as well. There's nothing humiliating about it, in my opinion. This view that the learning center is humiliating sounds like an idea that someone has if they never went through the pain of being good at calculus. I earn high six figures as a network engineer and, to this DAY, calculus is the hardest thing I ever learned. As a result, I talk about math with pride because I learned it. I also went to my schools learning center for hours a day to get help with understanding the problem solving processes. We called it the MERC (Math Education Resource Center) lab at University of Colorado Denver. I love freecodecamp, but this is such an intellectually impoverished view that getting help to learn something is humiliating.

It is not about AI taking your job, it's about companies leveraging AI to make their existing employees or hiring fewer employees because they can get more productivity done with AI as opposed to having multiple people at it - this will lead to reduction in team size, which ironically will mean in some way that AI will take your job. People need to stop coping. The most competent, technical people will stay, those with midlevel competencies will be weeded out. This is essentially a form of eugenics and we've been doing this since the dawn of technological revolution.

In the end they don't care how shitty the AI work is because it's essentially free, so long as it can justify cutting salary it'll be used. This is literally one of the driving forces behind recent enshittification (just look at AI "journalism"). That, and the fact that the ones who are left will not only have to do their job, but will just be saddled with the work of managing the AIs and covering for the lost manpower. It's wishful and frankly naive thinking to believe that companies will hire dedicated specialists to manage all these lost positions over just dumping it on existing employees.

I think the question about ‘potential’ should have been framed as : does one actually have the potential internally from the start to learn or does one have to learn to learn?? Like being born with an inherited skill or do we obtain through doing? Also do people have a built in limitation and no matter the time spent , results in no real accessible knowledge. Prime’s time philosophy is basically what I considered a form of calculated goals. You set a goal and measure all the risks to form a path to the goal. Risks don’t need to be dangerous but could be setting time aside, putting all your focus and chips on it. Almost a guaranteed success given the time you allow to develop and build what is needed to accomplish the goal. What Prime is building for the game engine is similar to a co-worker did with a card game.. years ago.. which caused issues because of the latency and memory.. hopefully Prime can solve it.

As dangerous as AI can become, for Engineers it does incapacitate the ability of novel problem solving because if you are not exposed to constant failure you can never rise above any challenge. This also brings up the question, if these marginal quasi-programmers become the majority then what will happen to the multitude of programming lanaguages? If the latter prevail then this can give rise to a singular language that will express machine replication instead of human thought.

Got to agree that learning to code and to build applications and infrastructure takes time. It takes months after getting a dev job to be basically useful and years to become proficient and decades to gain true mastery. The biggest block is not knowing what you dont know. No one can do a course and become an expert or even that employable unless the employer is happy to give time to learn on the job. I would say a much less stressful route to full stack dev is starting in something where its easier to get a job. Maybe second line support or QA or data reporting or often theres jobs going where you just sticky plaster some crap IT processes. These are jobs that are fairly easy to get as a new grad or even without a degree in the UK at least. From there, just make contacts within the dev team and seem interested and offer to help out on various projects once you know a few people and learn everything you can at work and do some programming outside of work. When a junior dev job comes up you will be in a much stronger position to apply and even if your coding sucks, you will know people and know the systems there which is already half the learning!

Nope. There is a cope among both sides. The people who overhype AI (like the crypto grifters), and the people who underhype it. The gap is so large between them too usually. LLM's are VERY good for only a few years of progress. If sam altman is correct and gpt4 is the dumbest model going forward, then yeah, the next model is going to be able to template and make a lot of code and do it very well. Even now if you need snippets or specific info on a library it can help with that. It can not make full applications, though with agentic workflows it gets closer and closer. That's very expensive though to have 10-20 gpt4o's working on the same thing. You absolutely need to be wary of improvements. I mean freecodecamp makes its entire living off of teaching coding, so of course they want to tell you everything is fine. Even if we never get AI to do math and logic soon, if it can be trained on enough code it WILL output it at a rate better or equal to humans.

Anyone can write code. On one level or another. One of the most important factors that humans have over AI is the ability to think 'out of the box'. The ideas that just seem to come out of nowhere but are in fact manifested in the ability to go beyond borders in your mind to achieve a better solution. You can get there genetically by being born a genius or you can build it with time and an understanding to grasp patterns and train your mind to level up. You cannot do that if someone or something is always providing you with an answer. One of the things I always took care with when mentoring Jr. staff or helping students in college at the Academic Computing Center at Buffalo State University. All of my mentors and best managers helped me to perfect being a smarter contributor to my field. I say... 'don't finish my code asshole. Get the f*** out!'

I’m in school for coding at the beginning I wasn’t using chatgpt/ai, but tbh it’s quite hard not to use the resource they provided. Ik i shoulfnt be using it but Ngl I became reliant on it it seems now. Before I was having dreams about coding now I haven’t had a dream ever since. But my goal ultimately wasn’t to get a coding job after I graduate which is soon I want to elevate/ innovate their business. Do I feel like I myself(yes) do I feel like I should go back n study more (yes). I really want to get into game development too. Enough of me talking

Do I think ai will replace developers? not at the current moment but like nvidia said sooner or later everyone will be developers
@thewaymj34846 ай бұрын
Regardless tho In order to use ai to help you code you need to know the foundation of it/structure

Also AI can duplicate itself so there may not be any need for people to become good at making robotics machines.plus over the years ive about AI taking over the world through many movies and video games like badland.So what you all think about this. Remain blessed Developers and programmers and Free code camp.

AI will not take everyone's job.. but AI will help companies reduce the labour force. Just like computer helped us reduce a lot of redundant and useless profession.. AI will too.. So AI will cause some people to lose jobs..

About the AI/ Copilot Take: By this loigc Airline Pilots would still be using paper maps and navigating holding the handles 100% of the time
@jc-aguilar6 ай бұрын
I understood something different. Let’s use the same analogy, if you want to be an airline pilot. Don’t start flying with autopilot, first you need to learn how to fly without autopilot. Then, you can use the fancy autopilot. You need the thousands of hours to be a safe pilot. At the end of the day, as a passenger you don’t care if the pilot use paper maps or digital or whatever. But, you care that a pilot knows what to do when s*t hits the fan and gets you alive where you want to go. I think he is saying that we need to really understand the tool, really understand it. Only then you can use things like Copilot that can help you safe time or be more productive. For example, you want to learn Go, do it the hard way without Copilot. Wait until the muscle memory is set. When you feel that everything is ingrained, then you can integrate tools like copilot. But, still be cautious that it’s not atrophying that muscle memory.

I had doubts about AI taking over our jobs, but hearing this explanation, I feel like AI might take our software engineering jobs after all. Prime needs some rest the explanation felt slightly all over the place, not his best podcast.
