As a senior product manager I also believe the concept of the 100x engineer is dead because AI is the 1000x engineer. The only thing separating you and the machine will be fungible skills: conveying complex technical information to others, empathy, leadership (google even has a test solely for leadership)
@@JoshtheFifith Sure happy to clarify. Empathy is a soft skill, one of the main 8 skills heavily scored in Meta's behavioral interview. It is the ability "to understand and share the feelings of another person". How do you boost the morale of individual members of your team, all of whom could be completely different from one another? How do you resolve personal conflicts in your team? These are just some of the many inevitable issues a leader will face, which all require some level of empathy.
Cyrus says “Learn to tell stories. Learn to build stuff”. The problem is these are fundamentally different mindsets If you love storytelling, it can be a huge adjustment to spend hours struggling to figure out some complex engineering problem But you have to. That’s where the breakthroughs happen. When I most want to get away from a problem, if I can force myself to stick it out for 1 more minute, that’s when the insight crystalizes. It’s almost like our minds ‘resist’ that moment of clarity I love getting to dig into these sorts of ideas with Cyrus. Yes they’re about the rise of AI, but they’re also about the deeper nature of what doing fulfilling work looks like
"learn to build, learn to sell" like he said - both become increasingly important for software engineers in the workforce after graduating Codesmith. Need soft skills too.
His Linkedin doesn't say anything really about what he was doing at Tesla. Zero details, only vague "building really cool 0-to-1 internal stuff. Software & product". For a Senior SWE it doesn't look convenient at all.
20+ yoe. I seems like the past 10 years have been soft skills + coding. I cannot imagine just writing code without having a bit of say-so in its product development.
The limitation of AI is that they cannot interact with the real world yet, therefore they need human input but once they have bodies aka robots then we will probably be doomed
Half of MLEs and AI Engs are on the research side now - it's researchers that companies need to build new AI ML products just as much as software engineers
As cs first scares me doing 4 years engineer worthless Every day seeing a video ai can beat coder you make something easily can copy but zero motivationa But I will try my best good at soft skills I want to know learning about marketing leadership skills is good for future
Senior citizen provides meaningful to themselves and the others based on their experience. That data that is something not easy to get or collect because it require to go into the unknown.
Some bootcamp bottom who supposably is trying to "advance the open source community via contribution" (quote from his github) has a locked GitHub account. What a surprise, I wonder why he wants no one seeing his code? Got chewed up and spit out from investment banking and has come into tech thinking he has a leg up because he has 5 buttons undone at all times and that "he can speak".. Spends the entire video making these broad generalizations that all current software engineers are basically losers who will eventually be obsolete (for no reason lol) and the good ones will be relegated to the dungeons to keep everything working while everyone else reads the 48 laws of power, pretends to work and plays politics. What a goose.

I heard a Dir of Engineering talk about being a 100x engineer via growing 10 people 10x - that's how you scale impact
what does leadership have to do with empathy I cant wrap my head around what your saying
@@JoshtheFifith this is how PMs talk
@@avgspacelover corporate mumbo jumbo talk

I’ve spent the last 10 months learning full stack web dev. Launching my SAAs in a month or two. The future looks bright.
Code + Media + Capital + Labor = Leverage. Brilliant stuff!
This was awesome! Despite the scary title it's actually super helpful tips on how to stay in the game as an engineer!
Amazing video and great advice, thanks Cyrus and Codesmith!
Ty for sharing Cyrus!
Cyrus has excellent taste in role models.
Can cyrus tell us more about his interview at Tesla?
Great video and advice! 🔥🔥🔥
technical knowledge will probably be even more important actually. gotta keep those LLMs in check!
"learn to build, learn to sell" like he said - both become increasingly important for software engineers in the workforce after graduating Codesmith. Need soft skills too.
Did he get a senior role at Tesla right after Codesmith? That seems hard to believe but impressive if he did.
His Linkedin doesn't say anything really about what he was doing at Tesla. Zero details, only vague "building really cool 0-to-1 internal stuff. Software & product". For a Senior SWE it doesn't look convenient at all.
I was rejected by tesla on my last round interview :(
Sad
Hope u get better offers
What did they ask though, like standard coding stuff ?
20+ yoe. I seems like the past 10 years have been soft skills + coding. I cannot imagine just writing code without having a bit of say-so in its product development.
The limitation of AI is that they cannot interact with the real world yet, therefore they need human input but once they have bodies aka robots then we will probably be doomed
Does codesmith have a link to their AI program? I already am a working engineer.
Great tips all around.
Recently laid off and going to spend this time to expand my AI toolbelt. A sobering but accurate take of tech.
@barbaradunham4213 Except that your profile looks like a bot.
Except thumbnail every thing what he said was useful and helpful
Long term employment would be in core engineering
Long term employment should be core requirement for CS degrees that cost six figures too
This was super informative
If Cyrus feels he sucks at coding then we are all doomed.
He only sucked, when he started.
Im in the research side of tech but would learning to code be worth it nowadays?
I would say so. I have a data scientist friend whose learning to code in order to gain an advantage

But I will try my best good at soft skills

Any chance you're a senior engineer at Telsa? Please let us know if you are!!!
Loved this 👏👏👏
This is fire 🔥
your mind is amazing 🔥
Really good video
how is your video quality so good

When will the next video come
Why i feel like this guy is ai
Waiting for next video
Naval knowledge right here
what video you made
Well done
Sound good 💯
Rocking🔥
Osm editing
Ahura Mazda....🙏
2 min in, i dont relate to this guy at all lol
Soo nice video
Awesome 😍
Very good
Tech wont recover from this recession and its time people pay attention now.
On repeat
Fantastic
harvesting poison videos 😍
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Nahi ho payega bhai. AI se kaha se ladenge. Alternative dhoond raha hu main toh. IT mein apna daana paani itna hi likha tha.

also, someone is clearly buying fake comments on this video lmao
If you want your future to be bright, don’t spend 20k on a bootcamp.
Really good video
your mind is amazing 🔥
