    Thanks for the boost in confidence, i didn't stop grinding through all my anxiety (idk how), i knew it was all over hyped, but my low self esteem made me think anything can replace me, but now that the hype is dying a bit, plus this video and a few others, finally i don't have to allocate so much mental effort into suppressing my anxiety

    Low self esteem can be a definite harbinger of useless shame, which you must fight off in order to continue learning and performing Computation at a career-sustaining level. However, I have to assume that in over a year you must now see the fundamentally-groundbreaking improvements in reason, speed, and overall capability that have been made to these models. That's not your low self-esteem playing tricks on you - that's just the truth. Even while working in the AI field myself at the beginning of 2023 (in an academic setting, which I admit makes it far easier to keep my job) I too was aware of the threat to my coding skillset. It was clear to me then as I used GPT-3, and it's now clear to everyone else using Claude-3 and GPT-4o that their continued advancement will make purely human-written line-by-line coding WITHOUT an AI-model completely obsolete. I am not aware of a single mind in the history of digital computation whose highest-accolades in programming could not have been achieved (at the very least) at a faster rate with the use of an LLM at least on par with GPT-4. I don't want to scare you out of the field, by any means. Just the opposite, in fact. Reading your comment about 'confidence' and 'self-esteem' and 'anxiety' in relation to assessing the impact of this impending technological change struck a disconcerting chord with me. Simply because your response to this video, using it as a 4 minute reassurance of your wavering faith in the software labor-market, was inherently flawed - I saw an incorrect technological and societal judgement that I think you only made because of that very same negative attitude you were trying to escape. In more direct terms: While a negative mindset could indeed make you ignore the reassuring facts in this video you already believed about AI (like what you said about there being unbelievable hype, or that any AI model to this day requires a "human-in-the-loop" to function), it is equally true that the facts you choose to remain blind to in order to preserve your inner-peace can be just as harmful if ignored. So you basically chose to put your mental-stability in the hands of one SWE's singular opinion whose view of AI is inherently biased as a career-programmer, and who did not put the necessary effort to predict the actual trends in the deployment of transformer-based llm models over the past year. Regardless of why @bigboxSWE did not make accurate predictions about the following trends and potentials in AI: 1. AI's increase in the global-increase of programming-capability and programming-efficiency 2. The upper-bounds of programming ability that were possible to achieve in just an additional year of closed and open-source AI model development 3. The massive blow to the software labor-force (AI was directly responsible for the vast majority of layoffs with the greatest layoffs being recorded just in 2024) in terms of quantity. Watch/read anything about these layoffs and it becomes clear that companies are, in fact, feeding their proprietary data/code-bases to create products and solve problems quickly and cheaply. And even if this isn't a direct strategy, the internal and external competition inherent to the labor force means ALL companies either get-ahead or fall-behind due to the ever-increasing employment of AI. This discussion was quite publicly debated constantly until it became the silent-norm. 4. The massive and viral potential for models other than chat-gpt that were, even at the time, quickly becoming prepackaged in the development ecosystems used by so many programmers (co-pilot at the time being quite widely used in Apr 2023, just 2 months after release). 5. The potential for revolutionarily simple, yet profound LLM-based architectures and solutions. These can still be built on sophisticated and preexisting AI-backends, but only need to introduce computationally lightweight wrappers and interfaces, or domain-specific training data that is well-curated and niche enough to create useful and novel behaviors in an LLM, or even just plain-english 'jailbreak' methods to wrangle the behavior of the most expensive super-computers known to man. Summarize that previous example out loud if you haven't yet: Not only do you have the ability to talk to a supercomputer in most any human language, but you can use plain, intuitive english to literally hack its intended behavior! In fact the reverse-engineering that revealed Chat-GPT's initially-supplied prompts was also done in the most revolutionary programming language to-date: English! So the hype was real, my man, even in Apr/May of last year, and you were actually already on the right path to understanding and taking advantage of these trends before ever seeing this video. That anxiety you described was not at all misplaced. You could see, feel, and hear which way the wind was blowing, but blew your intuition off because it felt easier in the short term. Am I being dramatic? Yes. But even as a 25 year-old positioned cozily in an academic-career (for as long as modern universities continue to exist), I too find myself on some mornings hitting the snooze button because GPT-6 will probably just finish my entire PhD before I even get the chance. Trust me, I've felt the fear of working in a field where you can fuck up and accidently automate your own layoff. I felt that fear then and I fear it now. I mean I was thirsting for a gpt-4 api key in March 2023, and at the same time had come to accept that AI - undoubtedly the greatest technological advancement of the 21st-century (I mean what else truly compares?) - had unlocked such a notable potential for power that it was a downright existential threat to the human species. I still fully believe that the threat of physical destruction at the hands of various AI applications is ever-present (not even accounting for the emergence of sentience or human-level will, just because it's so damn productive at almost everything it can interface with), just as I accept that most every place I will ever live in will probably forever be considered as a potential target for an international network of earth-ending atomic-bombs. Sound macabre? Too deep to consider when talking about the software job-market? Maybe you're right. But yet, all of the following is true: 1. The earth's temperature is increasing every year, leading to a growing threat of environmental catastrophes. 2. The threat of nuclear war has been a constant threat since they were first developed. We've only lasted 80 years against this possibility so far. 3. There is no natural law that in any way prohibits an artificial neural network (AI) from performing any given human-observed behavior. In fact, the gap between man and machine is primarily due to a lack of real-world AI interfaces (or robotics). Scary stuff indeed, and yet these uncomfortable facts that may soon prove to threaten our existence simply ARE. By accepting them, and working through the initial anxiety they may cause you, you will likely be able to actually come out on top of the trends if you prepare for them. The entire reason I was able to segway from my former research to something AI-related was because I could sniff out these trends earlier than anyone else in my particular scientific field, and have invested heavily in the continued success of AI tools to help me along the way. I had the advantage of excitedly watching this technology develop since 2018, but there are folks I know who were in your more naive position as well at the time, and they were able to smell the coffee earlier-on because they WEREN'T so emotionally impacted and impressed by AI. Their egos were not threatened by their lack of programming ability because they weren't programmers! I'll say this too - if you have ever considered it "cheating" to use AI to accomplish real-world work, you may want to question if that intense moralizing, obsession with professional-image, and conformity to traditional development ideology is in the best possible service to you or humanity in general. Digging your head in the sand in response to our rapidly changing cultures and technologies is like putting all your eggs in one basket. Even worse is when you only have the ill-informed and dismissive circle-jerk opinions of older tech-employees to learn from (no offense bigbox, you were just way off on this one). They've already staked their self-image and careers on a potentially-dying labor market, and if they decide to go down with the ship it may benefit them to take you down with them (anyone else have a dad with a communications degree? lol). I only wrote all this drivel because I too have issues regarding change in my life. And there's all sorts of horrifying ways a person can trick themselves into remaining as a stick in the mud. One of which is especially dangerous: convincing yourself that you're crazy, or that your rational ideas should be ignored just because they have the potential to make you feel bad. This isn't just about accepting a potential new career-path, but a key requirement for accepting any and all truth. Especially the horrible awful truths that we simply can't avoid. So our ability to even apply reason to the awful, horrid, nasty facts relies on our willingness to accept them as true. Covering your eyes and ears to the parts of the world you don't like only prevents you from ever knowing truth. Anyway the whole point of this essay is to remind everyone to stock up on guns, munitions, and A100s.

    Hey ! I'm new to your channel, I really like your content keep up the good work ! I also think that AI won't replace software engineers, but I can understand the panic. The thing is, when you say for exemple that even in the worst case scenario companies will still need devs to review AI's work, it still lessens jobs opportunities obviously. I'm just learning how to code and I don't know a lot, if not nothing, about this field but from what I understand we've been "sold" the software engineering field as a field where you can easily find a job, always growing etc... which has always been the case I think ? But with AI it might not be anymore since anybody will be able to write and review basic code (by basic I mean like a basic company website for exemple). Which again lessens job opportunities. So from what I understood, the (wise) fright comes from this fact. If, as in your worst case scenario exemple, companies will only need a fraction of actual engineers let's say 1%, then it's just like trying to be a tennis pro player. You would have to be in the very best and it would not be a job as secure as it has been. Does it even make sense ?

    For a person who is learning how to program for the first time now, is it best to use chatgpt in my projects after I learn the fundamentals? I know that chatgpt is very useful for producing code but many people say that in order to understand the code it produces you need to know fundamentals and have experience with it. On the other side, I don’t think I should completely eliminate it from my learning process because I feel like it will be too slow considering current developments and how it might be expected of you to have proficiency with chatgpt.

    I'm admittedly very early in my career as a software developer, but I agree. Having worked on massive systems, I don't see how any AI could actually write code that would work reliably on any existing large scale system. Nor can I imagine AI writing a new system of any significance from scratch and it being actually functional and maintainable. It's an incredibly complex job at both the macro-level (overall system architecture) and micro-level (implementation).

    I believe that If chat gpt can able replace developers then it will create new problems to the real time projects because two people can have same question or requirements but should not get the same approach and same solvation for the similar problems especially for bigger projects, and if you see this in a bigger picture it kills our future generations brains and only few people who can understand the complete coding and lives in a real-world will rule the software world like in old days😮

    This was 7 months ago which is basically nothing if you consider the fact that it took 5,500 years for us to invent the wheel. If you take a look how much it evolved and changed during these 7 month I would reconsider the message of the video. I personally don't believe that the demand for technical people with domain-specific knowledge will ever evaporate, however, the tasks they will do is certainly a subject to change.

    You state that we should be more worried about outsourcing than AI. I should point out that despite being a 30 year old phenomenon, outsourcing has also failed to eliminate the mediocre developer. If 30 years of outsourcing with incredibly favorable exchange rates and a global pool of talent available to everyone couldn't eliminate mediocre developers, what's AI going to do differently? This is going to be like trying to put out a fire with gasoline. Braindead people are going to treat engineering like a prompt-writing exercise and produce code that compiles, barely works, and close their tasks at lightning speed while piling up bugs by the hundred every week.

    good video but I highly disagree, at the very least it will 100% take away less senior developments jobs. I agree that the role will transform into more of a creative problem solving role however that also means you need alot less man power to achive the same outcome. I think what will happen in the short term is less developers will be needed and in the long term the field will be dominated by ai. The thing is though this isn't just a software develpment thing this is all jobs that require mental power. obviously gpt 4 will not be the program to do this but a few years from now at the rate of iprovement I think it's almost a certainty.

    What we see is just tip of the iceberg. They are already training ai models just for programming and specific ones for specific industries . Incentives are huge to develop this models because of earnings of programmers are one of highest on the market. Nobody is arguing that there will be no programmers in the future but sure will be far much less and doing less interesting tasks. Even a AI absolutist will reconcile that . Optimism will not help prepare yourself for what is coming. People who have niche specialization will be last ones to be replaced and generalists will be first.

    Look this statement, suppose AI write the whole specification of a software, and you want to start changing your requirements, because as a business man you don't see the whole picture until the software is in production. So, you start changing your requirement, do you want to AI change the whole underlying code by itself?, You will lose all the control of the code and it will be impossible as human to change anything without broke something. In summary, AI will have control and we, as human will never have control again in the life of the software, very dangerous thing.

    Saying "AI will replace X" is nothing new. When cameras first came into existence people said they would replace portrait artists. The idea that because now something can be done quicker it will remove the "slower" way is ridiculous. I can drive to McDonald's and get a burger in half the time it takes me to cook one that doesn't mean I am going to. Yes some idiot will try to create his "AI run" website or software company but it will be just that. A gimmick. No different than the people who thought Cameras would remove the existence of painters.
