[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
