If AI writes 80% of code, who even survives in tech?

so many AI updates, which AI tool is actually the best right now?

llms have huge problems with useEffect

Anthropic's CEO isn't sugarcoating what AI means for the future of software engineering. His own words: “Coding is going away first, then all of software engineering.” Sounds scary, but you'll want to take notes on what he said next. When asked where he thinks the opportunity will shift to, this was his answer: • Tasks that are human-centered • Supply chain • Semiconductor industry • Traditional engineering • Critical thinking skills

@0xPrajwal_ how are you supposed to know exact 90%? blocked

"What’s your plan if AI replaces you?" Sooner or later 90% of engineers will get laid off.

My evolution as a software engineer in the AI era: from manually writing code in VS Code, to coding in Cursor with an AI chat, to now only seeing AI agents in Claude Code. “Software engineer” might soon belong in a museum.

I’m muting people on X who don’t understand how far ahead Anthropic is. It’s hurting my brain so much that I had to do this. If you think OpenAI is in anyway better than Anthropic, please just block me to save both us some trouble.

Software engineering in 2026 is absurd. Developers pay $100/month for AI tools to write half the code. Companies still pay them $10k+/month to ship. So now grown adults are making six figures… by reviewing AI output, drinking coffee, and saying “looks good to me.” And somehow we all pretend this isn’t happening. What a time to be alive.

@leerob My prediction for what will seem obvious in a year: everyone having access to a powerful general-purpose agent will eliminate most barriers to becoming a solo founder. Massive reduction in undifferentiated heavy lifting, lots of successful niche business.

It wasn’t obvious to me one year ago that an excellent coding agent would also be the path to a general agent for all knowledge work. But now it makes a lot of sense. I’m interested to see where AI is at next year and what seems obvious then in retrospect.

If you are a software developer and dont use AI yet, then what are you even doing ? AI definitely isnt perfect, but its the future Start using it right now

Be honest, Which one was your first code editor? Don’t be shy, developer, I won’t laugh

The absolute biggest thing people are completely missing about the AI agent revolution It’s not the days of work it saves you It’s the years of training you no longer need to do that work

@PtrPomorski this is bs. junior costs more

There we go, full circle

GPT 5.5 is much smarter than I thought Yesterday, I did one-shots, coding, benchmarks, and was disappointed. Today, I did it all again, except via the API, which is now available. Results changed completely: → one-shot prompts went from bad to very good → excellent coding outputs, on both pi and holefill → benchmarks jumped, and now GPT *dominates* I don't know what happened, I suppose there is something wrong with my Codex. In any case, truth is this model is very smart. It obliterated my benchmark, which is crazy because some of these problems were meant not to be solved. I'll need much harder tasks. I also fixed 2 bugs that affected some providers: → added a retry for lost connection → removed the timeout limit DeepSeek and Kimi wanted to spend more than 1 hour on my prompts, so I let them. Their results are much better now. Kimi K2.6 almost reaches Sonnet 4.6, although much slower. Also this shows my points from last post were wrong Again: this is a new vibe-coded bench, I'm focused on other things, so expect bugs and don't over-read this! GLM 5.1, Gemma, Grok are not updated yet.

Unpopular opinion: "AI makes everyone a developer" is true the same way "cameras makes everyone a photographer"

i think we're quickly arriving at a reality where SWEs will be expected to be committing 24/7
