Some personal hot takes from AI: engineer Miami follows... 1. Software development is a dead-end profession because anyone can be a software developer now. 2. Anyone can use Cursor or any other tool and generate code. Being a coder and being a software engineer are different. 3. Computers used to be gated; now everyone has the power to make computers malleable. Everyone is a software developer now, but that does not mean they are software engineers 4. If you cannot demonstrate how a coding agent works, you are just a consumer and have imposed an artificial glass ceiling on your career as a software engineer. 5. If you are curious, you will have a job. If you have not been curious in the last two years, you are replaceable. 6. SaaS per-seat economics may become unstable as customers need fewer people to achieve results, prompting founders to think about new unit economics 7. Most companies will take two or three years (or more!) to figure out AI transformation. 8. Some companies are already building AI native teams of five to ten people who can build with the grain of AI 9. There will be an explosion in the number of software developers. Software development is now essentially free, and tokens are cheaper than humans 10. Not enough engineers know what it means to be a product engineer 11. JIRA ticket monkeys are cooked 12. If your company has banned AI, you should quit that company 13. AI is more like a musical instrument than just a tool play with it, make discoveries, build intuition learn where AI is good and where it fails

Here we go. This is the 9-month recap of my "The Future Belongs to People Who Do Things" talk. Inside: - The problems with AGENTS . md - The problems with LLM model selectors - Best practices for LLM context windows - AI usage mandates at employers - Employment performance review dynamic changes - The world's first vibe-coded emoji RPN calculator in COBOL - The world's first vibe-coded compiler (CURSED programming language) and a final urge to do things, as this is perhaps the last time I deliver this talk. It's been nine months since the invention of tool-calling LLMs, and VC subsidies have already started to disappear. If people haven't taken action, they're falling behind because it's becoming increasingly cost-prohibitive to undertake personal upskilling.

Last week I sat down with Ankit and did a brain dump. 1. A software factory is essentially a CNC machine or a woodworking shop. Without training, many people will cut off their hands. 2. Building a true “dark factory” as fully automated software production with no humans in the loop means solving autonomous verification first 3. Code review was mostly broken even before AI happened. 4. Agent maintainability is replacing human maintainability as the real measure of code quality 5. Nobody Knows What Engineering Orgs Will Look Like 6. Programming Languages Will Converge, and the Next One Won't Be for Humans 7. The Craft Is More Important Than Ever
