Will AI replace software engineers? Actually, no. The Self-Writing Internet will create MORE tech jobs. It will empower 8 billion non-technical people to become prompt engineers and tech entrepreneurs, while generating millions of new apps that need professional human developers.

AI enhances, not replaces—expanding opportunities for all.

The Self-Writing Internet sounds like a bamboo forest where everyone grows their own tech trees—non-technical folks planting ideas and engineers tending the digital canopy. 🎋✨

AI won’t replace devs, it’ll create more opportunities! The Self-Writing Internet will empower everyone while boosting demand for skilled builders.

Sam Altman says AI will replace many phone- and computer-based customer support jobs Roles that require human connection, like nursing, will remain safe The biggest uncertainty is programmers and software engineers, because AI makes them far more productive, So whether that leads to more or fewer jobs in 5-10 years is unclear

1. Software engineers and AI developers Despite AI writing code, Gates insists human programmers will remain essential. AI makes subtle errors requiring expert debugging and lacks the creativity to advance its own architecture. But that's just the first exception:

Mark Zuckerberg says half of Llama's development will soon be done by AI, not people. Satya Nadella says we'll need to reimagine the infrastructure AI agents use -- from sandboxes to repos. The remaining human engineers? “They'll be more like tech leads with their own little army of agents.”

Will Software Engineering Jobs Still Exist in 10 Years? "Software engineering jobs of today will not exist in 5-10 years. There will be demand for smart people who know how to wrangle these AI coding machines. If we want to call those people software engineers, so be it. But I think the job will be dramatically, dramatically different." Tom Blomfield with David Lieb on Y Combinator's YT Channel

Even if AI will write 90% of code. But it won’t replace engineers. Windsurf’s founder explains that even if AI generates most of the code, engineers still spend time reviewing it, debugging issues, designing systems, testing, deploying, and making architectural decisions. Those parts don’t disappear. He brings up Amdahl’s Law to make the point: speeding up one part of the workflow doesn’t dramatically change the total time unless everything else speeds up too. For example, if writing code takes 30 out of 100 total time units, and AI brings it down to 3, the total time still only drops to 73. That’s just a 27% improvement. More productivity doesn’t mean fewer engineers. It just increases the ROI of building tech. And when ROI goes up, companies are more likely to build—and hire more people to do it. Take JPMorgan Chase. They have 50,000+ engineers and a $17B software budget. If each engineer can ship more software, that doesn’t reduce headcount. It raises the cost of not building. Companies like Windsurf and Anthropic are hiring more engineers—not less—despite being at the edge of AI code generation.

Robinhood CEO Vlad Tenev's hot take about jobs in the AI era: "There will be more software engineers in 10 years than there are today, and there will be more lawyers." "It's going to become much easier to start a venture and run it autonomously." "You'll be a software engineer, de facto. You've got your Claude Code agents writing code for you." "There will be more businesses." "The need for the legal profession actually scales with business activity." "If you have a million businesses incremental per year, each of those is going to need legal support." Vlad Tenev on Basis Points with amit and Steven Fiorillo

📁 Dario Amodei, CEO of Anthropic, says AI will disrupt jobs faster and broader than anything before. Some roles, even software engineers, may shrink as models automate entire workflows. The real question is not which jobs disappear. It is whether we create new ones in time.

🚨ZUCK: "Probably in 2025, Meta, as well as other companies, will have an AI that can effectively be a mid-level engineer that you have at your company that can write code. In the beginning that will be very expensive to run, then at some point a lot of the code we have in our apps will be built by AI engineers instead of people engineers. In my opinion that will augment the people working on it. My view is that in the future people will be so much more creative and freed up to do crazy things."
