AI has changed software engineering more in the last 3 years than it has changed in the previous 30. What’s needed is not a debate about whether it’s going away—instead it’s a serious discussion about its future: What are the new primitives, techniques, and best practices for software engineering in the age of AI. That’s why I brought Scott Wu (Scott Wu) on AI & I. He’s the founder of Cognition, the company behind the world’s first autonomous AI coding agent, Devin. Cognition got to $73M ARR in less than 2 years—and they just acquired Windsurf to accelerate their growth. I had Scott on the show to talk about where the programming goes from here. We get into: - What the new tools and workflows are for AI engineers. In the near term, Scott sees software engineering defined by a spectrum of tools. At one end are AI features that speed up coding, like tab complete; at the other are agentic systems, like Devin, that can take on tasks independently. Until engineers can operate entirely at the higher layer of abstraction, he argues, both are essential. - Why Scott thinks AGI is already here. By the benchmarks of a decade ago—passing the Turing test, solving hard math problems, and operating agentically—AGI is already here. The line keeps moving, he argues, because humans constantly redefine work around what machines can’t yet do. - Why developers will turn into product architects. Scott sees the long-term future of software engineering as a steady climb up the ladder of abstraction. Just as programming went from assembly to languages like Python and JavaScript, he thinks the future is humans focusing on the product, while AI agents execute. - How Devin stacks up against Anthropic’s Claude Code. Scott credits Claude Code’s success to great product design and the models becoming capable enough to support autonomous workflows. But according to him, the CLI itself isn’t the breakthrough, it’s how a tool fits into a developer’s workflow. Claude Code’s paradigm is that the AI is you, taking the wheel of your computer, he says, while Devin is like the engineer sitting beside you: it runs in its own cloud environment, manages the repo, and improves over time at testing and refining code. This episode of Every 📧’s AI & I is a must-watch for anyone interested in the brass tacks of how AI changes the future of programming. Watch below! Timestamps: Introduction: 00:02:02 Why Scott thinks AGI is here: 00:02:32 Scott’s personal journey as a founder: 00:09:27 Why the fundamentals of computer science still matter: 00:16:55 How the future of programming will evolve: 00:22:30 A new workflow for the AI-first software engineer: 00:26:50 How Devin stacks up against Claude Code: 00:29:33 Reinforcement learning to build better coding agents: 00:40:05 What excites Scott about AI beyond Cognition: 00:50:05

Clawdbot creator Peter Steinberger offers a sobering reframe: Programming isn't dying, it's just becoming a hobby. He's being honest about where it's headed. He recently came across an article making the case that it's okay to mourn programming as a craft, and it struck a chord: "A part of me very strongly resonates with that because in my past, I spent a lot of time tinkering, just being really deep in the flow and just like cranking out code and like finding really beautiful solutions." But mourning, he says, is not the same as resisting. "It's okay to mourn it, but that's not something we can fight." His reasoning cuts to the core of why developer salaries ballooned in the first place: "The world for a long time had a lack of intelligence — if you see it like that — of people building things, and that's why salaries of software developers reached stupidly high amounts. And that will go away." The scarcity that made programming so financially rewarding was never really about the beauty of the craft. It was about supply and demand. AI is eroding that scarcity fast. And Peter Steinberger 🦞 isn't just theorising. He has shipped over 6,600 commits in a single month, much of it AI-assisted, sometimes without reading every line of code. That's what adaptation looks like in practice. The programmers who thrive won't be the ones who insist on writing every line themselves. They'll be the ones who understand systems deeply enough to direct, review, and build with AI as a collaborator. As Steinberger puts it: "The actual art of programming, it will stay there, but it's going to be like knitting — people do that because they like it, not because it makes any sense." The passion for code will always exist, but the era of it being a scarce and highly paid profession is coming to an end.

Claude Code cracked something open for us Every 📧. Now I ship to codebases I barely know, every feature we ship makes the next one easier, and non-technical members of the team use the terminal. I’m genuinely grateful. So I brought its creators, Cat Wu (cat) and Boris Cherny (Boris Cherny) from Anthropic, on AI & I to say thank you—and to talk about everything they’ve learned from building Claude Code. We get into: • The workflows Anthropic’s smartest engineers use to push Claude Code to its limits. Why they pit subagents against each other to get cleaner results, how they turn past code into leverage, and the slash commands and MCPs they rely on most. • The product lessons behind one of the most loved AI agents in the world. How the team balances simplicity and power—building a tool that anyone can use, but that experts can bend to their will—and their philosophy of “unshipping,” or cutting back whenever there’s a simpler, more intuitive path to user intent. • A peek into the future of coding with AI. The new form factors they’re experimenting with to make Claude Code more autonomous, more reliable, and more accessible to non-technical users This is a must-watch for anyone—both technical and non-technical—who wants to learn how to use Claude Code like the people who built it. Watch below!

Nat Eliason’s (Nat Eliason) career arc is borderline absurd—but it works. He’ll spot a new tool or trend, master it, build a business around it, and move on. Nat’s pulled it off with the note-taking wave ($600k in sales from a Roam Research course), real estate (6x return flipping property in Austin), and crypto (published his insider story with Random House). Now it’s AI: he’s running a viral course on building apps with AI—$200k in pre-sales in just a week, 800 students and counting. I’ve known Nat for a long time and I think he has a great sense for where the puck is headed. He was one of the first guests I had on the podcast and I was delighted to have him on again. Here are a few takeaways from our conversation: - Coding with AI has become orders of magnitude easier for non-technical people over the last 2 years—Nat rarely has to help students fix bugs; they troubleshoot in Cursor on their own. - AI coding assistants are creating new behaviours in programming, like using a speech-to-text model to talk to an agent and having it write code for you. - The traditional learning curve of coding is flattening because AI tools let beginners build and iterate in faster feedback loops. - AI has given Nat leverage in spades—it increases his ability to be a creator while also building a robust business with as few people to manage as possible. He demos an AI book editor he coded for his sci-fi novel. - In the age of AI, software is becoming content and the barriers to create are lower than ever—but custom software for everything isn’t the answer. Nat’s model is that personalized tools make sense for that one thing you care the most about. - Nat believes that the future of writing with AI is a Cursor-style interface with a model that’s trained on your style and voice. This episode is a must-watch for writers, creators, and anyone interested in the future of product building. Watch below! Timestamps: Introduction: 00:01:45 The origins of Nat’s viral course on building apps with AI: 00:11:45 How coding with AI has evolved over the last two years: 00:18:46 Nat creates an app using Composer, Cursor’s AI assistant: 00:22:22 Tactical tips for coding with Cursor: 00:26:06 How coding with AI is creating new behaviours in programming: 00:29:06 What excites Nat the most about the future of AI: 00:32:41 A demo of Hubbard, the AI editor Nat built for his science fiction writing: 00:38:58 When does it makes sense to build custom software: 00:44:52 Nat’s take on the future of writing with AI: 00:49:18

Here are a few takeaways from our conversation: - Coding with AI has become orders of magnitude easier for non-technical people over the last 2 years—Nat rarely has to help students fix bugs; they troubleshoot in Cursor on their own. - AI coding assistants are creating new behaviours in programming, like using a speech-to-text model to talk to an agent and having it write code for you. - The traditional learning curve of coding is flattening because AI tools let beginners build and iterate in faster feedback loops. - AI has given Nat leverage in spades—it increases his ability to be a creator while also building a robust business with as few people to manage as possible. He demos an AI book editor he coded for his sci-fi novel. - In the age of AI, software is becoming content and the barriers to create are lower than ever—but custom software for everything isn’t the answer. Nat’s model is that personalized tools make sense for that one thing you care the most about. - Nat believes that the future of writing with AI is a Cursor-style interface with a model that’s trained on your style and voice. This episode is a must-watch for writers, creators, and anyone interested in the future of product building. Watch below! Timestamps: Introduction: 00:01:45 The origins of Nat’s viral course on building apps with AI: 00:11:45 How coding with AI has evolved over the last two years: 00:18:46 Nat creates an app using Composer, Cursor’s AI assistant: 00:22:22 Tactical tips for coding with Cursor: 00:26:06 How coding with AI is creating new behaviours in programming: 00:29:06 What excites Nat the most about the future of AI: 00:32:41 A demo of Hubbard, the AI editor Nat built for his science fiction writing: 00:38:58 When does it makes sense to build custom software: 00:44:52 Nat’s take on the future of writing with AI: 00:49:18

WARP SPEED: EPISODE 4 - starring Daksh Gupta, CEO of Greptile Daksh Gupta The core difference between human productivity and every other species? Tools. On the margin, slightly better tools create long-term efficiencies that unlock time for more important things. Daksh, Soohoon Choi , and Vaishant Kameswaran built Greptile into one of the fastest-growing AI code review platforms in the world. $25M Series A led by Benchmark . YC-backed. 16 people. 500M+ lines of code reviewed this month alone for companies like Brex, Substack, and PostHog. The insight: AI coding tools are exploding. Cursor, Claude Code, Devin. Everyone's writing more code than ever. But the systems for validating that code before it ships? Breaking down. Greptile is the independent, centralized validation layer - AI that reviews pull requests, catches bugs, enforces standards. Daksh didn't plan to start a company. He was in senior year when he realized he'd lost his way. Remembered why he chose CS in the first place: to build things. He then convinced his college roommate - "the smartest person I know" - to move to San Francisco with barely enough angel money to survive. Now they're one of the most craft-obsessed teams in SF - using Linear, Claude Code, Cursor, and Warp to ship at warp speed. In this conversation: (0:00) - From losing his way in college to moving to San Francisco (1:24) - Applying to Y Combinator and building the foundations of Greptile (2:37) - Hiring more senior than typical: arbitraging ageism in Silicon Valley (3:40) - Building a company worthy of people who could go anywhere (4:14) - The new bottleneck: producing code is worthless without validating it (4:52) - The Greptile stack: Linear, Claude Code, Cursor, Warp (5:55) - "People talked about Warp with a passion you wouldn't expect for back-office software" (6:17) - The magic of heavy automation: "I'm never in it" (6:42) - Built for engineers, not HR people: "When you're used to confusing software, simple things are just delightful" (7:46) - Scaling from 15 to 50: "Whatever will go wrong, Warp will have functionality for it" (8:55) - Discovering Warp on Twitter: "Why are people so excited about payroll?" (9:35) - "It inspires you to build more intuitive things"

Old software engineering patterns are coming back because of coding agents. Dax Raad(dax), co-founder of AI coding agent OpenCode, on why DDD is becoming more relevant and less painful: “I think it's the same problem as always, which is how do you make code bases that are easy to work in, scalable, that can flex to new requirements. A lot of the old patterns for me are coming back. We've always been a big domain-driven design company. We did it in a very light way. We're now doing it in a much heavier way because we find that these, kind of boring, enterprisey patterns end up being pretty useful because you have a bunch of idiots on your team now. Coding agents are a bunch of idiots. They are going to work 24/7 and they're going to ship a lot of stuff so you need way more guardrails than you used to. What's nice is some of these old patterns we hated because they were very verbose, they produced reliable code that was modular and safe but they were very verbose and annoying to type out… you're not typing it out anymore. Now you can get the benefits of these patterns without the downsides."

Why did spec-driven development never take off - the workflow tools like Amazon’s Kiro or GitHub Workspaces encouraged? dex, founder of HumanLayer: “These projects have a really interesting idea: you maintain a set of specifications for your software, and then you maintain the code itself, and the dream is the coding part is just compiling specs into code. But that part never really materialized. I’m on a GitHub issue in spec kit that’s been open for a year, and every couple of weeks I get a new email on the thread of people complaining about the same problem: I edit my specs and then I edit the code, and the code drifts from the specs. How do I keep the specs up to date as the code is changing? You now have two sources of truth, and it stops being useful. That’s why with RPI (Research, Plan, Implement), the docs are tactical execution docs - I do the research, the plan, the implementation, and I throw the docs out. The next time I need research I just do it from scratch, because tokens are cheap and my time is expensive.”

Excited to share that I’ve joined Anomaly as founding designer. I’m thrilled to work with Jay dax Frank Wang and Adam — a team stacked with talent! I’ve always been fascinated by challenges that influence the way people work. Today, AI is reshaping software development at a pace we’ve never seen. From solo developers to global enterprises, the way we write code has shifted dramatically in the past year, and will continue to change in the years ahead. This is an opportunity for me to help shape these experiences for everyone, regardless of frameworks, IDEs, or tools. I want to explore how they’re adopted and how they can have the greatest impact. The team is hard at work on OpenCode — the open source AI coding agent for the terminal. With over 23K stars on GitHub, it’s already changing how thousands of developers write code every day. Follow OpenCode as we go beyond the terminal and design and build world-class AI developer experiences ✌️

8 rules to improve your AI coding agent. All of these rules work with Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, and with most programming languages. Automating these rules will 10x the code quality and security produced by your AI coding agents. 1. Dependency checks - Prevent your agent from suggesting insecure libraries based on outdated training data. 2. Secret exposure - Auto-fix the use of hardcoded credentials introduced by your coding agent. 3. File and function size - Automatically refactor any files or functions that exceed a reasonable length. 4. Complexity and parameter limits - Simplify overly complex code written by the agent. 5. SQL Injection - Auto-fix all database interactions with unsanitized user input. 6. Unused variables and imports - Detect and remove dead code. 7. Detect invisible unicode characters in AI rules files - Remove zero-width spaces, direction overrides, and other invisible characters that can hide malicious behavior. 8. Insecure OpenAI API usage - Enforce use of secure OpenAI endpoints, proper authentication, and context isolation Here is how you can automate this: Install the Codacy extension. This will give you access to a CLI for local scanning and an MCP server for agent communication. From here on out, every time you need to generate some code: 1. Your agent will write the code 2. It will then call Codacy's CLI to check it 3. It will find any issues in real time 4. Your coding agent will fix the issues 5. When the code passes all checks, you are done Level of effort on your side: literally zero! Code quality and security because of this: 100x better! Here is the link to download the extension for your IDE: Thanks to the Codacy team for collaborating with me on this post.

We also go deep on what comes next: the global race to AGI, why ChatGPT stopped showing reasoning, how much of OpenAI's own code is now written by AI ("it's hard to know what percent is not"), and the untold story of how OpenAI actually started in 2015. 00:00:00 Introduction 00:00:49 Meeting Sam Altman and Starting OpenAI 00:02:40 Building the Founding Team 00:04:25 DeepMind's Lead Over OpenAI 00:04:54 Changing OpenAI to a For-Profit Model 00:06:05 Breakthrough Moments at OpenAI 00:08:22 What Dota 2 Meant for OpenAI 00:10:04 Reasoning Versus Prediction 00:11:59 Tensions Grow at OpenAI 00:15:44 Sam Altman's Firing 00:17:49 Greg Quits OpenAI 00:19:56 Sam Explores Deal with Microsoft's Satya 00:20:28 Petition for Altman's Return 00:23:43 Ilya Sutskever Leaves OpenAI 00:24:59 Lessons Learned after Sam Ousting 00:28:22 The Thing Ilya Said that Greg Can't Forget 00:32:22 Is AI Going Parabolic? 00:33:24 How Much of OpenAI's Code is Written by AI? 00:36:21 Do AI Chatbots Tell Us What We Want to Hear? 00:38:06 The Global AI Race to Reach AGI 00:38:40 What Happens if US Doesn't Reach AGI First? 00:39:49 Are Countries Stealing AI Advancements? 00:40:38 Why ChatGPT No Longer Shows Reasoning 00:41:47 The Finite Constraints of Compute 00:43:38 On Investing Early in Data Centers 00:46:31 The Future of Data Center Specialization 00:47:52 How to Decide Whose Queries to Serve 00:49:08 OpenAI on Consumer vs Enterprise Models 00:53:05 Data Centers in Space? 01:00:56 What Should AI Regulation Look Like? 01:04:33 The Future of AI-Powered Entrepreneurship 01:04:44 AI and Job Loss 01:07:15 The Skills Young People Should Invest In 01:11:30 What Does Success Look Like For You?

. Kent Beck 🌻 is a legend in software engineering: and after coding for 52 years, he's never had more fun than now, he told me. Why? Because AI agents brought back the joy of creating software without the stuff that he's started to hate about coding for so long. Watch or listen: • YouTube: • Spotify: • Apple: Brought to you by: • Sonar — Code quality and code security for ALL code •⁠ Statsig ⁠ — ⁠ The unified platform for flags, analytics, experiments, and more • Augment Code — AI coding assistant that pro engineering teams love Two of my takeaways from this chat with Kent: 𝟭. 𝗞𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗶𝘀 𝗿𝗲-𝗲𝗻𝗲𝗿𝗴𝗶𝘇𝗲𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗸𝘀 𝘁𝗼 𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗔𝗜 𝗮𝗴𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀 𝘁𝗼 𝗯𝘂𝗶𝗹𝗱 𝘀𝘁𝘂𝗳𝗳. Kent has been coding for 52 years, and the last decade, he’s gotten a lot more tired of all of it: learning yet another new language or framework, or debugging the issues when using the latest framework. What he loves about these AI agents (and AI coding tools) is how he doesn’t need to know exactly all the details: he can now be a lot more ambitious in his projects. Currently, Kent is building a server in Smalltalk (that he’s been wanting to do for many years) and a Language Server Protocol (LSP) for Smalltalk 𝟮.

Kent joined Facebook in 2011, and was taken aback by the lack of testing and how everyone pushed code to production without automated testing. What he came to realize – and appreciate! – was how Facebook had several things balancing this out: • Devs took responsibility for their code very seriously • Nothing at Facebook was “someone else’s problem:” devs would fix bugs when they saw them, regardless of whose commit caused it • Feature flags were heavily used for risky code • Facebook did staged rollouts to smaller markets like New Zealand To this date, Facebook ships code to production in a unique way.
