- If I was forced to apply a label, I would say mid-level engineers are basically 99% of us. - There's really no point in categorizing engineers by 3 levels (low, mid, high) because being an engineer is a life-time study, you are not stuck doing something, and you cannot categorize a person like this, you just can't. - Engineers are not known to drop their hands if they have nothing to do, especially if they have a lot of time in their hands. - You wouldn't want to piss off the doctor that was in charge of your health, would you? How about 99% of developers? Developers that are familiar with the kind of infrastructure that is making you money (so far), or even the AI you used to screw them over? I think it's very easy to underestimate people in general... Let's not piss on the community that worked and are still contributing in today's technology, disrespecting their role in our society with threats of their removal... I think it's pretty easy to understand...
I don't think so It's not possible to ceo stuff Why because developers are coding stuff it's self contained Ceos don't have that kind of compartmentalisation like developers do
@vg1024 No it could you can create a AI bot that could handle a large % of the work Mark does. Share holders would be happy they can simple replace the bot when needed no salary and they can get even more money.
Hmmmm .... seems like the same thing they are doing at my company. "Replace" developers, designers, testers, etc with AI ...... but then a few weeks later you get introduced to another developer that resides in India, Philippines, Guatemala, etc. Not saying AI is not making certain roles easier, but my job was never about coding. Coding is the easy part, it's the communication and babysitting that is hard.
AI won't magically read your mind and build what you want. AI is just a tool that we as developers will need to learn to use. Even if we no longer write any code (which is very far from today).
It's important to note that while AI's role in software engineering is expanding, the collaboration between AI and human engineers is expected to drive innovation and efficiency, rather than lead to widespread job displacement
He actually said "sort of middle level Software Engineers" and he didn't say anything about replacement. But idk, I think humans have to review the code written by AI at least
Hey Unc! When I first learned to code long ago in the stone ages I followed you here on YT and used to make jokes about ruby . Now ruby pays my bills . Life is full circle .
If ai is capable of replacing mid level engineers in meta then I think these engineers will also be capable of creating lots of meta ,Facebook whatsoever etc..
@@SXsoft99 Yeah, meta is not the website, is the habit of millions of people to spend their time in their products (instagram, facebook). Skype, MySpace, Yahoo, all of them seemed impossible to take out of the software ecosystem and guess what, they died anyway, why? Because they became shitty/better alternatives appeared. There'll be dozens of new Meta before AI can replace software developers.
Notice the only ever talk about replacing developers. the rest of the tech jobs never get talked about. I think it is because this is all about cost savings. developers get paid the most. remove them from the equation with cheaper labor physical or virtual. outsourcing 2.0.
The first people let go at large tech companies are typically non technical roles, assuming there's no engineer bloat. And no, at large companies managers, marketing, etc can earn comparable salaries. What are you talking about?
i run a local llama3.2 model integrated in my nvim environment and i barely use it. It's so frustrating the other day i was lazy and i ask it to fix a file for me (Just to replace some types) but it failed. Then i instructed how to fix it, i even pointed the line and how to replace it. It failed again. IA is so stupid i just use it as stack overflow. suckerborg just turned himself into a bro and cranked up the IA meter to 1000 to please the stupid investors. As a teacher IA is very good but as an agent i should use it with much precaution
Has anybody actually spent serious time with these AI code 'partners'... well I HAVE, and I'll tell you, they suck a$$. You want to put yourself into a perpetual iterative hell on earth, start a REAL project with an AI coding partner. You will spend 80% of your time working out ways to help the AI over it's insane toolbox of errors. Let's start with 'memory'. It just forgets every 30 min. at best. I call it a 'black out'. What's worse is that the AI doesn't warn you. It just goes off grid for about 10 seconds, comes back and tries to 'Act' like it hasn't forgotten everything you have worked on for the last 30 min. So you build prompts, and config files, and markdown documentation files and readme's and instruction manuals so that when you see the AI blackout, you can direct it to these documents. It comes back and says that it read them, then continues on as though it did not bother and has no idea what you are talking about. You eventually get to the point where the AI is spending 20 min. of it's 30 min memory window re-learning and re-reading the project documentation. Oh, and how about when I tried to just write a small utility and asked AI to help me using python with built in gui, and postgresql. No API, No MVC, No web tech. I mean as simple as it comes. I explicitly told it to NOT USE OOP. let's just have simple functions and pass arguments. really super simple. So, what did my AI partner do, While we were implementing functions and updating the gui code, the AI was re-writing my other functions in the background and converting some of them to classes and methods without me knowing. Didn't even find those errors until hours later when stuff just stopped working. three days just up in smoke. When the AI tries to fix it, since they can't remember for more than 30min. they fake it and just try to rebuild an generic app that does not work. After all of that HELL, they say to you, "oh, you're right, sorry. buy more credits and we'll try again..." You are literally working with a Schizophrenics Maniac with Multiple personality disorder. But hey, they're polite.
Keep receipts when Zuck and others say these things. If an AI model creates its first major vulnerability or outage (like the Crowdstrike one), there will be a lot of backpedaling and revisionist history.
Programmer for 35 years for government CoBOL on mainframe to internal web development. I retired after 35 years. Now a little WordPress for 1 client. There will likely be a need for programmers for quite a while and AI will help. Murphy's Law: Anything that can go wrong eventually will, still applies. Someone has to fix it.
Always appreciate your take Stef! And what’s your take on web and product design in general? As a designer I’ve noticed it’s still very subjective, especially when companies wanna stand out with their branding as they usually lean towards custom stuff, whether it’s design systems, UX flows, motion, and website obviously - even though this whole thing could be built on top of certain libraries to make things easier. So, I’m curious how do you feel about AI getting involved in all this?
@junicornplays980 he does but also they sell nothing. It's a ad company that hires nerds. The rift is the only thing they actually sell. If AI will do all he says why should anyone look to work for them. Gen alpha will think it's crazy that we looked so hard for jobs instead of just using a AI getting some skilled friends together and starting something
While the industry has undeniably evolved, there is still a thriving market for tailored solutions for small businesses, startups, and niche markets. Not every company needs a full-scale enterprise solution or a team of developers to achieve their goals. Many small businesses, for instance, still rely on affordable, custom websites to establish an online presence. Furthermore, the rise of no-code and low-code platforms has empowered individuals to create scalable applications without needing a traditional CS degree. These tools have democratized the industry and allowed people to deliver value without the massive overhead of enterprise-level programming. The demand for web solutions now lies in adaptability, creativity, and understanding specific client needs-not necessarily in just knowing the latest frameworks or languages. The playing field has shifted, but opportunities remain abundant for those willing to adapt and innovate.
AI will be able to replace a lot of developers because let's be honest most of the things we are developing have been developed by many other developers.
A few months Uncle Stef was saying "don't worry Ai is not going to take your job, unless you do algorithm" now he has changed his tune to " if you are mid level programmer or react developer...worry."
A lot of it is just talk and nothing else. Often the Media likes to take things our of context and switch it around spreading misinformation. As of right AI is nothing more then a peice of software that we use as tools that runs on a computer that assist humans workers. There will always be a need of human interaction when working with AI assist tools. Plus Software Engineers does a lot more then coding. They solve problems.
How stupid has society become? Letting computers tell them what to build, I am starting to hear people calling for AI bosses. If humans let robots and computers take control over everything, eventually the computers eliminate the humans.
If AI is going to replace developers, why the need for all those H1B visas that we are hearing about lately? And of which most are for developers, I assume.
If AI can replace mid level Engineers then Mid level engineers will be able to hire thousands of AI agents and build things that will make facebook and insta things of a past.

Hey Uncle Stef, I just started my education towards becoming a react dev. 😅 should I drop out or should I finish the education and learn how to adapt to ai? Is there a future?

Ai is just correcting the industry. These bootcamps were cranking out a ton of jr devs for years. Its deff going to slow down the growth of the dev space but not replace devs. You still need a human to sign off on changes and different developers control different portions of an application. No company is going to give ai access to everything hands off. With that being said, for those already in the industry now is the time to build for yourself with the power of Ai. Not worry about a job. Jobs in general will be obsolete in a few years.
It's not correcting the industry. If there were too many devs then we wouldn't need to import engineers on H1b visas. AI will be used to benefit the profits of corporation, and they are actively seeking ways to replace developers with AI. Just like the H1b visa, AI is just a way for corporations to pay less workers. So stop blaming the little guy (bootcamp grads), they were just a pawn on the chessboard too.
