[0:00] I think if you were to work in TCH I you
[0:02] have two radically Divergent ways to
[0:05] think about it if you want to be a
[0:07] programmer and have job security I think
[0:10] you have to pick something as close to
[0:12] the metal as possible for example NASA
[0:15] will not have JavaScript generated or
[0:18] like GPT generated JavaScript run the
[0:21] Rockets right or the Tesla cars or what
[0:24] have you so if you want to work on
[0:25] embedded systems using C you have job
[0:28] security for 50 years the other
[0:30] direction is you want to get really good
[0:33] at being a product person yeah and being
[0:36] a jist being a designer a maker pm and
[0:39] that's because I think this like full
[0:42] stack developer that's the thing that's
[0:44] most at risk right because it's the
[0:46] thing that's most represented on on
[0:48] GitHub it's the thing that AI is most
[0:50] good at it's the thing that's already
[0:52] somewhat automated like people using
[0:53] repet and cursor and others you're
[0:55] already sort of automating a big part of
[0:57] it so I think the need the demand for
[1:00] Engineers like that I think will will go
[1:02] down and instead companies would look
[1:04] for generalists that can go from
[1:06] ideation to production code by using Ai
[1:10] and I think they're going to be a lot
[1:11] more highly leveraged and again also if
[1:14] you're already in Industry I would run
[1:16] in one of those directions don't stay in
[1:18] the middle I think the middle is is
[1:19] going to get squeezed okay well welcome
[1:21] everyone my guest today uh is amjad CEO
[1:23] of replit uh replit has 34 million users
[1:27] and just made his AI agent uh free for
[1:29] every want to try so super exciting
[1:32] really
