hey im unemployed bro 50 to 60 grand sounds good to me, and if can work remotely work even better, go back to my country and save even more. what type of job could get me in door? not even remotely. Im in boston
What do you think, if I learn ComfyUI and become a Prompt Engineer now, how much demand will there be for this skill? I'm just incredibly interested in it and want to realize my own script.
Coding is the only occupation that I could think about, outside of organized crime, that allowed my lazy self to earn enough money in an Eastern European country to have a decent life.
@@walidoulondon8107 nah bro, you didn't understand. TechLead is making such satirical videos. He is actually praising software development jobs. But you'll get it, just watch couple more videos.
Smart to compare it to college. When it’s really all just a pyramid scheme; Go to college to become college professor as there is no need for an Egyptologist 😂
Tech lead is the king of sarcasm LOL - yep only real folks who knows him well will understand what he is trying to point out, for me, I'll give the folks here a clue, shhhhhhh it's all about the LAW of supply and demand hehe
my dentist once told me after around 10 years of studying that studying dentistry is not worth it and after 8 years of working he hates it , well now after 8 years of work he is getting a lot of money and lives comfortably , my point is this the typical point of view for any one who spent years in the same field, they feel it is not worth it , so it is not worth it for you , but for us it does , and we won't always be employees , after sometime we can do our own business . the field will always be there , but in different ways . it is changing but not dying. so we need to cope with it over time
When someone boasts about traveling every other month, then compares programmers to janitors, who is on-par with slaves, it goes to show the arrogance and how-of-touch with reality. Hey, maybe he only said it for the click and view, which shows the willing to trade ethics for fame and money.
This is what happens when you become the tech lead. You start forgetting that someone still has to write all that code that is integrated into every small, medium or large business of today.
@@rodneynsubuga6275 the AI is trained on all the code that exists, and already AI can create it's own training data and self-improve without us. I recommend watching this to see the future: "OpenAI’s ChatGPT Makes A Game For $1!" - Two Minute Papers
haha so true, learn coding, get a job but quit very fast and make a youtube channel about working in "tech" as programmer and how bad and boring it is and that it sucks and AI will replace coders anyways and make money with youtube videos.
Been writing music for 37 years and at the age of 50 just after just one year of python coding, have coded my own midi generator to speed up my work flow for writing music Was it worth it to learn coding at 49 years old. Hell yes it was worth it. custom software for personal use is going to become very popular.
Very underrated comment right here. I believe you hit the nail on the head. I always loved the idea of coding but was very intimidated with all the coding languages out there (btw i'm 40). But ever since GPT4 came out i actually been building stuff... like real working stuff. My jaw dropped when i suddenly over night "felt" like i was a programmer with the help of AI of course. Anyway, pardon my rambling.... I believe more people will get into programming because of how easy it's becoming. It will attract more attention because building your own custom "Tools" has become a reality to anyone who's able to use natural language to communicate what they want to these AI tools. And they are getting better at a faster pace than it would take the average person to get a degree in computer science. Programming IS in demand now more than ever before. You can still make money from it, you just need to sell it differently. Just my 2 cents.
I mean it makes sense. A rich 30+ guy with no wife and/or child to raise at home will get bored of the monotany of his computer compound after awhile and go on a trip, he just doesn't have to be hypocritical about it.@@Coolboy2755

Software development is not just about writing software, it is about solving problems creatively with software. Coding is one of many skills you need to be a software developer. AI will replace software developers? No, it will only help developers to do work quickly so that better software can be delivered in the same amount of time. Innovation will always be a human endeavor.
yes but thats just another learning curve , the study and learning doesn't stop and its annoying and dull at some point until you get burned out or washed out. you obviously dont get his point
AI will not replace all, but many. I would say in 10 years, 90% of Jobs in this area, will be gone. Just watch what happens in India. I agree that you will still need coders who can put thing together, but as AI raises over 300, there will not even this needed anymore. The human brain just can't properly recognize exponential grow, that's all it is. And now put conscious on it. Experts say, that at this point, we have 72 hours until AI reach 1000 and see us as a threat for earth. Musk, Hawkings and others may be wrong, at least i hope they are, but sadly, this is not a technical anymore, it became more and more philosophical.
@@danielgx83 Respectfully I disagree. It's like self driving cars. Don't you think UPS, FedEx, and Amazon are writing blank checks for R&D to replace the humans? What about the military? Humans are the costliest asset. - It's just a matter of time before AI coding specialist (or whatever corporate buzzword) is for someone who can think logically and have the AI do the work. I would research the top accounting firms to see what their outlook is to their clients. Coders and IT staffers are probably safe for another decade. Blue collar jobs are looking really well these days. You get paid for what you do. That simple. :) - Have a Happy New Year!

Being a coder in a south asian country, and having opportunity to do remote jobs allowed me to earn a salary that would have taken 20+ years in any other way. Also entrepreneurship is not for everyone. I pretty much sacrifice all of my social life because of the work that i do outside of my job, just to get up small microsaas so I can stop doing job soon.
yes, IT is great for developing countries. which is why, now all the rich asian countries are outsourcing to south east asia. while the rich asian countries are now enjoying high unemployment rate. Or artificial "normal" employment rate because the ex-coders are now working as a take-out delivery guy.
I'm a translator (German to English). I've been told that my profession was going to be eradicated by automation/AI ever since these buzzwords were created. Turns out that (as a contractor) my income has only increased over the years, and the work has only gotten increasingly more complex. Even though I do not have a technical background, I can say with confidence that AI/automation is highly overrated. I think programming will always be relevant, it's just that the nature of the profession will change over time. How that will look like, I'm not sure. But I believe it will involve still having intricate knowledge in programming, but it will more look like project management.
how is this for accuracy? " ChatGPT Ich bin Übersetzer (Deutsch-Englisch). Mir wurde gesagt, dass mein Beruf durch Automatisierung/KI ausgelöscht werden würde, seit diese Schlagworte entstanden sind. Es stellt sich jedoch heraus, dass sich mein Einkommen im Laufe der Jahre nur erhöht hat (als Freiberufler), und die Arbeit ist nur noch komplexer geworden. Obwohl ich keine technische Vorbildung habe, kann ich mit Zuversicht sagen, dass KI/Automatisierung stark überschätzt wird. Ich denke, Programmierung wird immer relevant sein, es ist nur so, dass sich die Art des Berufs im Laufe der Zeit ändern wird. Wie das aussehen wird, bin ich mir nicht sicher. Aber ich glaube, es wird weiterhin ein tiefes Verständnis für die Programmierung erfordern, wird aber eher wie Projektmanagement aussehen.' ---> chatGPT
The spelling is on point. However, it’s a direct translation. For any type of informal text where nuance/sentence structure/word choice (in terms of synonyms) doesn’t matter, this is a perfectly acceptable translation. One substantial mistake I was able to identify perusing the text is that chat GTP spat out the word “Vorbildung”, which shouldn’t translate to the word “background” I used. vorbildung refers to one’s formal education, whereas background in English can refer to both formal and informal training/education. Another mistake which I identified is that Chat GTP adopted the exact same sentence structure used in the English language. That’s actually a huge one as it does not sound like the speech of a native German speaker. Chat GTP also adopted the same short and scrunched together sentence structuring that is common in the English language. This sounds very odd in the German language. Again, it’s a good translation “1-1 direct translation” (and serves its purpose of conveying meaning), but it’s not an “actual translation” that takes the meaning and repackages it into a native-sounding product. This is also the reason why most translators only have a one-way language pair (for example, i ONLY translate from German into English, not vice-versa). Any type of “creative” text that relies heavy on onomatopoeia, literary devices, figures of speech, context and nuance such as marketing, literature, business and legal texts do not fare well with machine translation. Many agencies I work with have policies in place that state that if they suspect the use of machine translation, they will no longer award me assignments. And the most telltale sign that machine translation can create sub-par translations (rather than good ones) is that Google themselves publicly state that Google translate should only be used for reference purposes, and that it should at least be reviewed by a human before being published. This policy is even more important in the legal industry. Legal texts such as judgments, affidavits, contracts have real life consequences. If the lawyers/judges/jury members misinterpret information because machine translation spat out incorrect context/nuance, this can literally alter court cases (for better or worse). Now I will add that the one area where machine translation aids humans the most is technical translations (anything to do with engineering, technology, computers etc.) given the black/white nature of the field, and hence the lack of nuance. In fact, I heard that patent translators are affected the most since machine translation is basically doing the job for them.
Ive been saying something similar. I am a software engineer and my work is safety critical. There will always be a human needed to review the code and test the code. Our roles may shift but we will not be eliminated. In fact in my case, there will be more engineers needed, not less, because the number of software products developed will increase with an increase in developer productivity.
This video just goes to show why some people shouldn't be making content in the tech space. Spreading this kind of false information can alter the way aspiring programmers think. You're essentially making people question if all the effort they are putting into this field is pointless. No amount of credibility gives you the right to strip people of their title as a developer, even if it is React development, people still went through an immense amount of work and effort to get where they are. You point out that people shouldn't learn how to code because it isn't what it used to be. Keep in mind that most people looking to transition into the tech industry aren't looking to become the next Mark Zuckerberg. They are looking to live a better and more fulfilling lifestyle, and by saying "to become a programmer -- is like becoming a janitor." You're taking away peoples aspirations and the hours/years of work they put into learning a skill like coding. My only wish is that people see this video as an example as to why just because channels have a massive following, doesn't mean that they are people you should look up to. You are strictly looking to make money off of this video -- and by doing so you are altering peoples minds with such a sensitive subject as this. If this sounds harsh -- that's the point.
This video is right. I learned to code, I spend over 3000 hours to learn front end development.. I applied to hundreds of jobs But I never got hired. He is righ the tech market is oversaturated and floaded.
@@limitless1692 maybe you shouldve done some research on what skills are in demand by companyes , if you have a basic avg knowledge of the field you wont "stand out" ,
I absolutely love this guy. He inspires fear and terror into the hearts of some many potential future developers. Thus making my job so much easier. Take away. He’s scaring off my competition. Love it.
For one TechLead, there are dozens of "Hey look how I became a software engineer earning $100,000 with no degree". Every day, I see a new TH-cam channel about coding. So, no, your job is going to become more and more difficult. If you believe that TechLead alone is scaring off your competition and making things better for you, then your job is probably difficult already, because it's supposed to be a job that requires logic.
Competition for what? He's a multi-millionaire; like he cares? Coding is useless is an age where algorithms are writing 99% of it. The only coding that matter is the creation of NEW and INNOVATIVE software. If you can't bring that to a company or be contracted to do so; you're wasting your time.
Coding changes all the time. The difference between assembler and high level language was higher, than now and before 20 years. Its now easy to code, however it is not easy to develop large software.
I still am working towards a degree to make my dreams come true. I will focus on medium and smaller business solutions and do so remotely. Possibly to build a team while doing so. Status means nothing for me. I just want peace, quite, some money, and freedom.
Coding skills is always worth it. You can apply the skills and way of thinking in other professions also. So don't waste your time with learning how to code, but buy the keyboard its awesome for your nightly coding hours. Cheers!!!
Core points discussed in the video: 1. Coding will give nothing but a 9-5 job which is an employee mindset. 2. There will be less coding in the future, instead focus on fields like AI, web3, .. 3. frameworks will never make you a real developer, DSA will. 4. "Software engineer" is not a "high-status" job like everybody think. 5. Focus on skills that will make you rich not slave skills. My opinion: I only disagree with the "Techlead" in the point that the knowledge given by the university is outdated, because that knowledge (creating database from scratch, having idea abt how compilers work or creating a website) all of this knowledge is the only way to learn and master CS. Also 100k software engineering job is not high paying job, I disagree on that point also ://
Yeeaa 100k is pretty mediocre money to live on. But there is also fact that people make a lot less than that in many other professions, just imagine how bad that is.
@@sercan272727 Less than 15% of US citizens will make more than 100K, and of 2022 the median household income is 75K. Thus, a person earning 100K isn't mediocre at all.
I'm studying Comptia and CCNA certs and thinking of getting my Bachelor degree in I.T. and maybe learning coding after that. But I am 40 years old and not getting any younger. What are your thoughts on this? I am struggling with studying for the Network + and find this stuff pretty boring, for the most part but don't really have much other options.
Agreed but makes you wonder if it wasn’t better for some to just become a certified accountant, a trucker, plumber, etc… many people in the trades (provided they arrive on time and sober) can make way WAY more than $100K after a few of years of working while getting certifications on the side, plus they can start working almost as soon as they finish high school without carrying hundreds of thousands of dollars in debt… so these people start already with a several years of work debt less headstart (+$300K?) compared to someone that spent 5+ years studying and a large loan to pay just starting their career. There’s of course the love for the craft involved, I’m an electronics engineer (out of peer pressure), but never exercised and ended up programming video games (without any CS degrees or formal study on that front), the potential lower pay I deal with by being as minimalist as comfortably possible, since I love doing what I do so much.
@@sercan272727the difference is they never expected to make 100k. A teacher wasn’t sold a 100k starting salary. So they don’t feel like they’re missing it. Like expecting the latest smartphone and being there with replica phone.
I agree with you that some languages seem a bit peculiar, and spending three years in college might not be everyone's cup of tea. However, you can totally pick up coding on your own! Personally, I'm aiming to become a web developer, creating and managing my own company.
The video is a humorous and exaggerated take on the drawbacks of coding as a career. The speaker uses irony, sarcasm, and hyperbole to mock the coding delusion and the slave programming skills. He also contrasts coding with other more appealing and profitable opportunities, such as the media layer and the entrepreneur programming skills. The video is also a clever way to advertise the sponsors, Skillshare and Keychron, by integrating them into the narrative and the theme of the video. The video is entertaining and informative, but it should not be taken too seriously or literally.
I can't possibly disagree with this video more. I started coding/software engineer in 1985. Even back then, they were saying coders wouldn't be needed in 10 years (They also said we wouldn't need paper anymore. 🤣). It is fantasy. There are way more skills to software engineering than coding, and although there is a possibility AI will eventually be able to provide these skills in some fashion, it still quite a ways off. And someone has to be able to tell if the AI is wrong or right, because we all know that ChatGPT et al are wrong A LOT! Also, who is going to tell the AI what to do? It needs to be someone who knows how to give instructions and define the detailed goal in technical terms. Some of your points have merit, but overall, you are way off on your timing, IMO.
Well Mr. 1985, you're right on a lot of points, though I've come to understand that you are neglecting a strong point. Humans will continuously evolve, technology is ever evolving and humans use this as a method to evolve themselves. That being said, there will always be humans in the equation taking control to some degree, you're right on that. Though, what you're not understanding is that the concern lies with the demand of Software Engineering. SWE will become undoubtedly obsolete to the degree that it at the minimum drastically reduces the majority of the SWE job market; it's simple and logical, it can't be denied. The logistical growth of AI can't be understood, illustrated by the CEO & AI Engineers being surprised or unsure of the breakthroughs that have happened or any that may continue to happen. This being said, there are two possibilities for the very near future (2-7 Years): Possibility 1 - SWE will continue on the path of drastically plummeting on job demand in spite of the market perhaps being the most oversaturated for a high skill job. Possibility 2 - Schools will teach SWE as a fundamental in the future just as we learn 2*2 because there will be some job no-one is aware of currently. So, will AI "Take over SWE?" Well metaphorically and in a great sense, yes; through eliminating an insane demand that employers deem unnecessary. It simply can't be denied, just hope that SWE becomes a fundamental for a more complex job, though we'll see I guess.
"It simply can't be denied" - haha, AI didn't take even 1% of SWE jobs, so it won't take any significant amount in any near future, your 2 years predictions are a joke - here I just denied it.
Although the central thesis of the significance of the (both liberating and dysfunctional) economic opportunity created by broadening participation in media is correct, one of the modulating/countervailing elephant-in-the-living room issues is that the FAANG have monopolized the Internet which is stagnating opportunities for startups software development. The video is overly pessimistic because of the lack of decentralization which he alluded to in the prior video (The Age of Making Money is Over). Correct that people are not going to download new apps (pita!), but they will visit new websites. So apps just need to become websites (the standalone app is nonsensical). And we need to decentralize everything to open up all the opportunities again for programmers and innovation. No disrespect intended because Patrick Shyu is knowledgeable, observant and intelligent, yet he may not be a visionary (after all he took a job at Google and I coded and marketed million user software more than once by myself or in small startups). Afaics, he is analyzing without any vision for how to innovate out of the stagnation of the current monopolization paradigm which incidentally is helping the self-immolation of Western civilization as the scapegoat for the end of the post-WWII (especially post-1970s) globalization, debt bubble.
You cannot operate on patterns, but on facts. And this why AI will fail, at least for now. It is possible that we won't need developers anymore, 1985 is not 2024.
@@yuki2413 I agree 1985 is not 2024. But neither is the technology even remotely close. There are new APIs, libraries, programming paradigms, interaction paradigms, UI/UX designs, operating systems, hardware interfaces, hardware designs, input interfaces, and countless other new developments constantly shaping technology. AI will not "create" these ideas, nor will it be able to implement them in its current state. AI, IMO, will always be AT LEAST one step behind human innovation, and it will depend on humans to develop the blueprints for AI to operate from. It might even get to the point that by the time AI catches up to the newest technology, the tech will have moved on to the next iteration. Eventually, the cost to teach the AI may not justify its usefulness in some fields. It is all speculation for now, and I am a big proponent of AI. It can improve productivity efficiencies in many industries and really help with automation in brand new areas. I just don't think it is going to replace all of our jobs in the foreseeable future. Right now, AI has helped search and information gathering technology take an evolutionary step. I look forward to what comes next.

All those "digital nomad influencers", as you put it, rely on technological tools to reach their audiences. Software engineers are required to build and maintain those tools. There is definitely a lot need for programmers and there will keep being a need for them for the foreseeable future. The trick is that, like many other jobs before, this one is transitioning into a more "mass production" pace, where there will be a foundation of lower-skilled, "menial" workers, doing simpler maintenance work on web apps, and a smaller pool of high-skilled engineers working on more complex products.
He is right, but there are layoffs and hiring freezes for just about every role tech or not. Coding will just morph back to people that actually enjoy doing it instead of people just doing a quick bootcamp to try and make money

It seems contradictory that 200,000 tech employees were laid off, considering big companies typically maintain reserves, especially during times like the COVID-19 pandemic when people stayed indoors, and tech firms experienced substantial profits. The tech market is normalized right now. So he’s not that right and also has a profit with making fear and negative news like a lot of his videos lol.
Even people who actually are suited to be an entrepreneur, 99% of those people fail. That’s the reality of it. No matter how hard you work, how good your ideas are or how suited you are to it, there are so many other factors at work outside of your control. Like the story behind bill gates for example. Not just being in the right place at the right time, so many other aspects had to perfectly fall in life for him to succeed. Almost all of that was out of his control. If you’re gonna do that it’s a lot less work to just buy lottery tickets. Same chance of success. The reality is the smart thing to do is minimize risk of failure and focus on what’s realistically attainable. Sure, try starting a TH-cam channel like everyone else. But it doesn’t matter how good content you make if nobody ever sees it, which is the outcome for just about everyone. Give it a try. Maybe that agorithim will make your dreams come true, but probably not
There is a difference between failure and just have a working business (not the super skyrocketing super company). Getting a working business with lots of rationalism, self control and business skills is still 80% possible. But yes entrepreneurs fail to 90% because most are more stupid then my retarded cat.

Thanks a lot.
He's usually somewhat right, but his projections are usually around a few years in advance, for this one it seems alot more in advanced. This one time he was talking about the meta verse and how it would fail so he sold his stocks. It came true months laters. This other time I think around 2019-2020, he started talking about how inefficient most tech companies were by the ratio of their employee size and they would most likely lead to mass layoffs in the future. It's been happening more and more after 2020. Following his past ideas on this topic and this idea in this video I wouldn't be surprised again if he is right considering new global talents and that AI technologies increases exponentially. His predictions in the past may seem obvious, but just remember that's all in hindsight and he also gave more reasons as to why than what I typed (I typed the general idea) but when he upload those videos he got alot of flack and many comments disagreeing at the time
It's possible but I wouldn't be surprised if AI ends up flopping in the end.. Ultimately human rat-racing continues to be a requirement for society to function@@CrackShot-3

coding if you have EXPERIENCE is very high in demand, if you are looking for entry level with no co-op or internship... good luck that is saturated, only way you're getting in is if a family member is in upper management
Like I always say, if learning programming doesn't give me money, it will at least give me the power to create anything I want from scratch. If you want to make money, code for yourself, create some SaaS or PaaS and sell it, or create a store that works better than any other, find a niche and satisfy that niche. Problem solved! LoL
A huge problem is that most people think that you can only code for someone else, i.e. a company. No. You can build your own sites and make money off them. There are plenty of them.

It's going to be conversational generated code, but you're still going to need to know fundamentals of code design and architecture, so it's not going anywhere. It'll democratize this as a way to take away corporate competition and makes more localized business options. I'm seeing this for local IT companies that are becoming agencies for MSPs.
You have to simplify your preferences, watch the market and adapt. Enjoyment of life doesn’t solely come from getting so financially high, but primarily from doing things. So programming preference = problem solving, logic, introversion, technical knowledge, creativity. That can be transformed. Most importantly knowledge gained in this field won’t just inflate, it shapes thinking.

People thinking AI can even replace junior developers are delusional. If AI reaches a level where it can completely replace a junior developer then it will probably be able to replace every developer since the most important thing that a developer has to do before writing code is to understand the codebase the connections and how they are expected to do things to not cause problems for the rest. AI right now offers just a little assistantance explaining things or recommending solutions that arent exactly right or need work. Also the one using it should still understand what the code does because if they dont understand they cant know if the answer is correct or not. This wont change anytime soon and if it does it will replace everyone not just junior devs.
@@togfanatic3781 if you think Devin is enough to replace a software engineer with someone who has no idea about programming and just uses it to program right now you are delusional.

What he’s talking is about the people who realize that the 9 to 5 grind and the slave jobs are not for them. But the reality is 95% of the population still believes that is a sustainable way of living and they will continue to do so in someway or the other, so to all you folks who are saying that they have learned nothing from this video you really have to look at the speakers perspective and understand what he’s really saying.

Basic coding is going to disappear, but maintaining million-line projects that can only be described in 10000 page documents, where concepts are ambiguous, and you need 1 million samples to test the system properly, well those jobs will stay here a little longer. Also leadership skills are still going to apply, and the instinctive ability to break down large systems into smaller parts, negotiate between teams, making sure customer expectations are met, that there are no misunderstandings, that's going to be here for the time being. And it has higher social status, the Team Lead. Coding is deceptive, because if it was easy to explain a problem, we wouldn't need coders. The issue is that certain problems are inherently complex and can't be explained in a few basic sentences. Natural language often doesn't help you when a formal description is needed. I think leadership and communication are going to be increasingly more important. Entrepreneurship could become more important. If AI can take over the job of 400 employees, there's still going to be that single person who's running them, the entrepreneur, and maybe every person in the world will become an entrepreneur, when we're no longer employable by large corporations. And when a single AI can do the job of a million workers, there are no more companies, only individuals.
I was hoping to hear somewhat realistic and helpful video after a long time of avoiding this channel. Didn't disappoint me. All I am hearing is ther is no point trying but buy my product. I am done for good.
I went to tech school in the early '80s to learn about computers. They told me that they weren't training up to be programmers. That's grunt work. They were training us to be systems analysts. We were supposed to take out little Associates degree and go on to a traditional four-year university to get into our REAL major and then figure how to apply computers to that field. Sounded good to me. But watching you, all I can do is watch those keyboards twinkling behind you. Pretty! I need a numeric keypad, myself…
I spent a week learning how to write a file text parser and then automate it in powershell, chat GPT did this in less than 10 seconds with full working code.
You also could've probably just googled it, then copied a solution from Stack Overflow? Generative AI is fundamentally word guessing with a sprinkle of context. Oftentimes you can find AI code verbatim copied from a text source you could've found with a couple googles anyways. However, now you understand the inter-workings of your text file parser, and can tweak it to your exact needs.
Agree about the close future of programming, but... It's crucial to challenge the misconception that React was created solely for 'bad' programmers. Programming, like any field, spans a wide range of skill levels, and React simplifies complex tasks for developers at all levels. Following this logic, you could claim that automatic gears were designed for bad drivers, garbage collection for developers who struggle with memory management, and programming languages for those who can't work effectively in assembly. Regarding the perceived higher status of creative professions over coding, it's vital to realize that many people genuinely love coding, with some being passionate about both fields. For instance, I'm an example of a music composer and programmer at the same time, enjoying programming just as much as composing music. Creative professions and programming both have their unique rewards and challenges, and they aren't immune to technological impact. AI, including personalized content generation, will reshape creative fields as well as programming. The belief that creative jobs are untouchable by technology is unfounded. The arrogance in assuming that creative professions are invulnerable is unwarranted. Creative jobs are just as replaceable by AI as technical jobs, if not more so due to fewer regulations. Today, creative work is often judged by mass appeal, but AI will take it a step further by creating individualized art, music, movies, and more. For example, AI can create virtual bloggers tailored specifically to you, and no human blogger can compete with that level of personalization
I'm not a programmer, never went to the university to learn this but man it's so interesting, I'm learning how to code all different kind of roulette strategies to backtest how well they will perform in Excel and Numbers, I'm just using "nested if functions" and man I LOVE IT !!!! it totally changes the way you need to think but compared what you are coding, this is PEANUTS what I'm doing
Blockchain development, Web3, and software as a service is beginning to reveal how worth it actually is to code in 2024. And as developers start getting lazy utilizing Ai over human skill, software engineers who have an equivalent if not better level of personal ability will be extremely valuable.
The medicine field could also be replaced by AI at this point, except for what requires physicality like surgeries. Still, it has not. Why? Convenience. If one wants to be a programmer in 2024, what they need to do is research skills in demand, learn then, prove that they can code them, and be patient. Internet and the "fast life" culture has changed everything for the worse, I truly mean it. What also changed is that, in the past, younger people used to learn the skills of their families and earn a living from them. If your father was a farmer, you would probably end up as a farmer too. Another gargantuan issue is the fact that menial jobs barely earns someone a living anymore, so you have the young struggling to date, have a family, own a home and become independent. The psycopathy and stupidity of the previous generations will result in mass chaos in the future. Young men are especially violent if they don't have what they need. But people will keep on living while pretending that others are not struggling to live aswell, and so crime, confusion, and uncertainty will plague set in, more and more on society. It does not help that the elites treats its voters as tax cattle.
Honestly i always knew that coding is not the dream path in wich everyone gets to be rich, but i just love tech, i just love to build things, to create things, to program things, the possibilites just to be able to know how to do things amuse me, i would do it more for my own and less for the "im gonna becone rich mentality" so coding is still a win win for me
you hit some very important points in this video. Btw, the Keychron keyboard may be nice, but they are way overpriced. I use epomaker and have same or more options, for half the price. Anyway. From your perspective, the things you say make sense, but even so, i would describe this views still as too positive. As profession, I am 3d Artist and developer, until i started a year ago to dive deep into AI, see the brutal rise, the magnificent possibilities of AI Models. Not only in my profession, it's everywhere. And now add consciousness to all this. 60% or more will just lose their jobs, their skills and work will be rendered useless, no matter how hard they try to compensate. Let's come back in 10 years and see what happened. As much as I want to see this patch positive, it will not turn out good. Even with universal income, like Elon Musk suggested it. The social impact at our society will be brutal. Too many people just falling down, while a few stays on top with a brutal amount of wealth. History repeats, but only this time, you can't even offer this people some slave jobs, because they aren't any.
After recovering from a seven-year illness, I began looking for ways to support myself and explored various fields. During my research, I noticed that many of the world’s wealthiest people built their success through tech, especially coding, which inspired me to learn it myself. Choosing to code turned out to be the right decision, opening doors of opportunity and allowing me to work without intense physical effort-ideal as I’m still in recovery. I’m grateful for this journey and know that coding is a field that perfectly fits my life and goals.
The AI can write simple UI and everything. But what about the infrastructure? I still have to see an architecture provided by an AI. These always vary depending on the situation
As long as HI is so low that they go serverless and think this is more then a stupid marketing concept of Amazon, so long AI will be seen as a competition. Just that it's higher level management/design dosn't mean the people have more brain cells.
Except my keychron keyboard and likely his can be programmed with VIA and do have a numpad . I don't have arrow keys or numpad that physically can be seen, it is on another layer, which means my arrow keys and numpad are in the same place as my normal keys, what I am trying to say is the way my keyboard is setup, I never have to move my hands and everything is in easy reach and you have everything you need. Layer 1 makes my number row the F keys, layer 1 has my arrow keys, work macros, numpad, and on and on. Layer 0 has the normal alphabet, except I made my pinky delete and moved the colon key. I also made capslock delete, etc.
I like having a numpad but it makes the keyboard too wide which hampers my mouse movement. That's why I switched to 80%. Entering long numbers is annoying but I do that rarely.
All i want is to leave my 9-5 in my third world country, you can't tell me i won't be able to get a 9-5 coding job anywhere if i start learning for myself rn

Wrong: 1. I work in IT industry and have TH-cam channel that about to be monetized, if it won’t I wouldn’t stress out about it as I have a real job 2. Market is not over saturated, my wife is an HR and I can tell it’s almost impossible to hire people, as people don’t want to work after covid 3. No one missing social media revolution or whatever you called it, in fact everyone posting tik toks and have high expectations when in reality did not want to learn and grind 4. People from all over the world taking software jobs in us, as example should I mention how many people from India in industry . In fact I am immigrant myself and in states since 2007, but as citizen of this country I would only encourage people to get into it and keep on learning, at the end that’s how you made it to where you are in life right now…
Programming or almost any IT skill is commodity these days. Too many people can do that and not enough high paying jobs for that. And my favorite keyboard is Leopold, old school sturdy thing made in Japan. Love it!
I kind of agree. I've been working in IT since 2015 and it seems like the starting pay hasn't gone up hardly at all. Like I'm trying to move and find a new job, currently make $37/hr at my job, but any starting pay where I want to go is like $20/hr (I started out at $18/hr in 2015). Not gonna happen. Companies know that entry-level tech support is pretty basic. Mid-level support is becoming simpler thanks to MDM's, and so many services are cloud-based and no longer require managing servers on-prem. So the level of knowledge required is lower, there's less physical equipment to manage, and any major issues are usually a problem with the company you outsourced your services to.
I love this channel because it's an amazing insight into the head of NPCs. Hearing something like "status is everything" said so honestly and hearing the arguments so eloquent and summarized, gives clear insight into why so many people are so miserable even if there is nothing wrong in their lives.

The same has already been said decades ago. Yet most companies who try to outsource to India get burned. A much better alternative for outsourcing is Eastern Europe but as a result it's not that cheap anymore since wages have risen.

The creator of Python, Guido van Russum, is still programming; even while retired and earning 10 million a year. The pleasure of figuring things out is mote valuable than money for some ppl.
These arguments may feel new, but this type of rhetoric has been around forever-e.g., your time has passed, they’re enslaving you, etc. Most of the viewpoints presented here are biased and loaded with gross generalizations. Nearly everyone who tries to predict the future fails. I do enjoy your flat display of hubris-maybe it’s just dry humor. This one gave me a good laugh, and the presentation is uniquely entertaining. That said, the tech world is very much experiencing an adapt or die situation; perfect for innovation. Just because you can’t imagine a new future that hasn’t been created yet it doesn’t mean we should all quit our careers, become social influencers, or go tour the world. I commend you for finding a way to do what you love, but you’re presenting a very narrowminded set of options. New opportunities for coders and designers will emerge. We will carry on, in one form or another. Happy holidays!
Coding transcends the boundaries of traditional engineering, elevating it to an art form akin to playing the piano. It's a creative process, where each line of code is like a note, collectively creating a symphony of functionality and innovation. Computers, the most intelligent devices humans have ever created, have become integral to our daily lives. We spend countless hours with these machines, relying on them for a myriad of tasks and entertainment. However, without the knowledge of coding, we miss a crucial opportunity. Coding is not just about instructing a computer on what to do; it's about understanding its language and potential. It empowers us to push the boundaries of what's possible, to make computers perform more complex, more interesting tasks. In essence, not learning to code is akin to having a beautiful, high-performance instrument at our disposal, yet never learning to play it. As we reflect on the hours spent in the company of these digital wonders, a tinge of regret may emerge for not having delved deeper, for not having learned to harness their full potential. In an age where technology shapes our world, coding is no longer just a skill; it's a form of expression, a way to interact with the most sophisticated tool humanity has ever crafted.

my dentist once told me after around 10 years of studying that studying dentistry is not worth it and after 8 years of working he hates it , well now after 8 years of work he is getting a lot of money and lives comfortably , my point is this the typical point of view for any one who spent years in the same field, they feel it is not worth it ,
so it is not worth it for you , but for us it does , and we won't always be employees , after sometime we can do our own business .
the field will always be there , but in different ways . it is changing but not dying. so we need to cope with it over time

Been writing music for 37 years and at the age of 50 just after just one year of python coding, have coded my own midi generator to speed up my work flow for writing music Was it worth it to learn coding at 49 years old. Hell yes it was worth it. custom software for personal use is going to become very popular.
That's different than a slave job
love to see it, great way to modernize your workflow
Very underrated comment right here. I believe you hit the nail on the head. I always loved the idea of coding but was very intimidated with all the coding languages out there (btw i'm 40). But ever since GPT4 came out i actually been building stuff... like real working stuff. My jaw dropped when i suddenly over night "felt" like i was a programmer with the help of AI of course. Anyway, pardon my rambling.... I believe more people will get into programming because of how easy it's becoming. It will attract more attention because building your own custom "Tools" has become a reality to anyone who's able to use natural language to communicate what they want to these AI tools. And they are getting better at a faster pace than it would take the average person to get a degree in computer science. Programming IS in demand now more than ever before. You can still make money from it, you just need to sell it differently. Just my 2 cents.
Can I see the midi generator?

Software development is not just about writing software, it is about solving problems creatively with software. Coding is one of many skills you need to be a software developer.
AI will replace software developers? No, it will only help developers to do work quickly so that better software can be delivered in the same amount of time. Innovation will always be a human endeavor.
yes but thats just another learning curve , the study and learning doesn't stop and its annoying and dull at some point until you get burned out or washed out. you obviously dont get his point
AI will not replace all, but many. I would say in 10 years, 90% of Jobs in this area, will be gone. Just watch what happens in India. I agree that you will still need coders who can put thing together, but as AI raises over 300, there will not even this needed anymore. The human brain just can't properly recognize exponential grow, that's all it is. And now put conscious on it. Experts say, that at this point, we have 72 hours until AI reach 1000 and see us as a threat for earth. Musk, Hawkings and others may be wrong, at least i hope they are, but sadly, this is not a technical anymore, it became more and more philosophical.
Other than maintaining, there are no lucrative problems left to solve with coding.
ok have fun with your button development.

I'm a translator (German to English). I've been told that my profession was going to be eradicated by automation/AI ever since these buzzwords were created. Turns out that (as a contractor) my income has only increased over the years, and the work has only gotten increasingly more complex.
Even though I do not have a technical background, I can say with confidence that AI/automation is highly overrated. I think programming will always be relevant, it's just that the nature of the profession will change over time. How that will look like, I'm not sure. But I believe it will involve still having intricate knowledge in programming, but it will more look like project management.
how is this for accuracy? " ChatGPT
Ich bin Übersetzer (Deutsch-Englisch). Mir wurde gesagt, dass mein Beruf durch Automatisierung/KI ausgelöscht werden würde, seit diese Schlagworte entstanden sind. Es stellt sich jedoch heraus, dass sich mein Einkommen im Laufe der Jahre nur erhöht hat (als Freiberufler), und die Arbeit ist nur noch komplexer geworden.
Obwohl ich keine technische Vorbildung habe, kann ich mit Zuversicht sagen, dass KI/Automatisierung stark überschätzt wird. Ich denke, Programmierung wird immer relevant sein, es ist nur so, dass sich die Art des Berufs im Laufe der Zeit ändern wird. Wie das aussehen wird, bin ich mir nicht sicher. Aber ich glaube, es wird weiterhin ein tiefes Verständnis für die Programmierung erfordern, wird aber eher wie Projektmanagement aussehen.' ---> chatGPT
The spelling is on point. However, it’s a direct translation. For any type of informal text where nuance/sentence structure/word choice (in terms of synonyms) doesn’t matter, this is a perfectly acceptable translation.
One substantial mistake I was able to identify perusing the text is that chat GTP spat out the word “Vorbildung”, which shouldn’t translate to the word “background” I used. vorbildung refers to one’s formal education, whereas background in English can refer to both formal and informal training/education.
Another mistake which I identified is that Chat GTP adopted the exact same sentence structure used in the English language. That’s actually a huge one as it does not sound like the speech of a native German speaker.
Chat GTP also adopted the same short and scrunched together sentence structuring that is common in the English language. This sounds very odd in the German language.
Again, it’s a good translation “1-1 direct translation” (and serves its purpose of conveying meaning), but it’s not an “actual translation” that takes the meaning and repackages it into a native-sounding product. This is also the reason why most translators only have a one-way language pair (for example, i ONLY translate from German into English, not vice-versa).
Any type of “creative” text that relies heavy on onomatopoeia, literary devices, figures of speech, context and nuance such as marketing, literature, business and legal texts do not fare well with machine translation.
Many agencies I work with have policies in place that state that if they suspect the use of machine translation, they will no longer award me assignments. And the most telltale sign that machine translation can create sub-par translations (rather than good ones) is that Google themselves publicly state that Google translate should only be used for reference purposes, and that it should at least be reviewed by a human before being published. This policy is even more important in the legal industry. Legal texts such as judgments, affidavits, contracts have real life consequences. If the lawyers/judges/jury members misinterpret information because machine translation spat out incorrect context/nuance, this can literally alter court cases (for better or worse).
Now I will add that the one area where machine translation aids humans the most is technical translations (anything to do with engineering, technology, computers etc.) given the black/white nature of the field, and hence the lack of nuance. In fact, I heard that patent translators are affected the most since machine translation is basically doing the job for them.

Ive been saying something similar. I am a software engineer and my work is safety critical. There will always be a human needed to review the code and test the code. Our roles may shift but we will not be eliminated. In fact in my case, there will be more engineers needed, not less, because the number of software products developed will increase with an increase in developer productivity.
This video just goes to show why some people shouldn't be making content in the tech space. Spreading this kind of false information can alter the way aspiring programmers think. You're essentially making people question if all the effort they are putting into this field is pointless. No amount of credibility gives you the right to strip people of their title as a developer, even if it is React development, people still went through an immense amount of work and effort to get where they are. You point out that people shouldn't learn how to code because it isn't what it used to be. Keep in mind that most people looking to transition into the tech industry aren't looking to become the next Mark Zuckerberg. They are looking to live a better and more fulfilling lifestyle, and by saying "to become a programmer -- is like becoming a janitor." You're taking away peoples aspirations and the hours/years of work they put into learning a skill like coding. My only wish is that people see this video as an example as to why just because channels have a massive following, doesn't mean that they are people you should look up to. You are strictly looking to make money off of this video -- and by doing so you are altering peoples minds with such a sensitive subject as this. If this sounds harsh -- that's the point.

Core points discussed in the video:
1. Coding will give nothing but a 9-5 job which is an employee mindset.
2. There will be less coding in the future, instead focus on fields like AI, web3, ..
3. frameworks will never make you a real developer, DSA will.
4. "Software engineer" is not a "high-status" job like everybody think.
5. Focus on skills that will make you rich not slave skills.
My opinion: I only disagree with the "Techlead" in the point that the knowledge given by the university is outdated, because that knowledge (creating database from scratch, having idea abt how compilers work or creating a website) all of this knowledge is the only way to learn and master CS. Also 100k software engineering job is not high paying job, I disagree on that point also ://
Yeeaa 100k is pretty mediocre money to live on. But there is also fact that people make a lot less than that in many other professions, just imagine how bad that is.
@@sercan272727 Less than 15% of US citizens will make more than 100K, and of 2022 the median household income is 75K. Thus, a person earning 100K isn't mediocre at all.
I'm studying Comptia and CCNA certs and thinking of getting my Bachelor degree in I.T. and maybe learning coding after that.
But I am 40 years old and not getting any younger.
What are your thoughts on this?
I am struggling with studying for the Network + and find this stuff pretty boring, for the most part but don't really have much other options.
Agreed but makes you wonder if it wasn’t better for some to just become a certified accountant, a trucker, plumber, etc… many people in the trades (provided they arrive on time and sober) can make way WAY more than $100K after a few of years of working while getting certifications on the side, plus they can start working almost as soon as they finish high school without carrying hundreds of thousands of dollars in debt… so these people start already with a several years of work debt less headstart (+$300K?) compared to someone that spent 5+ years studying and a large loan to pay just starting their career.
There’s of course the love for the craft involved, I’m an electronics engineer (out of peer pressure), but never exercised and ended up programming video games (without any CS degrees or formal study on that front), the potential lower pay I deal with by being as minimalist as comfortably possible, since I love doing what I do so much.
@@sercan272727the difference is they never expected to make 100k. A teacher wasn’t sold a 100k starting salary. So they don’t feel like they’re missing it. Like expecting the latest smartphone and being there with replica phone.
I think you need more of these travels to get past the depression and get back to your senses.
😂😂 what i was thinking
i still remember the days when techlead actually did tech content
I have never been more motivated to become a programmen than after watching this video! Cheers :)
coding is just a tool to get a computer to do what you need. as long as computers are prevalent in any given field, coding will always be needed.
You must be a senior coder to understand his point of view. It is a dead end.
Didn't TechLead do coding in order to get himself into the position he is now in?
Decade ago, things were different
Keep it up! These vids keep the competition low :D
😂😂
I agree with you that some languages seem a bit peculiar, and spending three years in college might not be everyone's cup of tea. However, you can totally pick up coding on your own! Personally, I'm aiming to become a web developer, creating and managing my own company.
Paying those bills before year end. I respect the hustle, Tech Lead. Happy 2024!
The video is a humorous and exaggerated take on the drawbacks of coding as a career. The speaker uses irony, sarcasm, and hyperbole to mock the coding delusion and the slave programming skills. He also contrasts coding with other more appealing and profitable opportunities, such as the media layer and the entrepreneur programming skills. The video is also a clever way to advertise the sponsors, Skillshare and Keychron, by integrating them into the narrative and the theme of the video. The video is entertaining and informative, but it should not be taken too seriously or literally.
Exactly
I mean, he was saying being a coder is more like being a janitor..
what the heck is with this gpt comment
@@goulash31mocking of AI slave mockery by AI
Even though this comment is A.I. generated it's spot on analysis of the video.
I can't possibly disagree with this video more. I started coding/software engineer in 1985. Even back then, they were saying coders wouldn't be needed in 10 years (They also said we wouldn't need paper anymore. 🤣). It is fantasy. There are way more skills to software engineering than coding, and although there is a possibility AI will eventually be able to provide these skills in some fashion, it still quite a ways off. And someone has to be able to tell if the AI is wrong or right, because we all know that ChatGPT et al are wrong A LOT! Also, who is going to tell the AI what to do? It needs to be someone who knows how to give instructions and define the detailed goal in technical terms. Some of your points have merit, but overall, you are way off on your timing, IMO.
Well Mr. 1985, you're right on a lot of points, though I've come to understand that you are neglecting a strong point. Humans will continuously evolve, technology is ever evolving and humans use this as a method to evolve themselves. That being said, there will always be humans in the equation taking control to some degree, you're right on that. Though, what you're not understanding is that the concern lies with the demand of Software Engineering. SWE will become undoubtedly obsolete to the degree that it at the minimum drastically reduces the majority of the SWE job market; it's simple and logical, it can't be denied. The logistical growth of AI can't be understood, illustrated by the CEO & AI Engineers being surprised or unsure of the breakthroughs that have happened or any that may continue to happen.
This being said, there are two possibilities for the very near future (2-7 Years):
Possibility 1 - SWE will continue on the path of drastically plummeting on job demand in spite of the market perhaps being the most oversaturated for a high skill job.
Possibility 2 - Schools will teach SWE as a fundamental in the future just as we learn 2*2 because there will be some job no-one is aware of currently.
So, will AI "Take over SWE?" Well metaphorically and in a great sense, yes; through eliminating an insane demand that employers deem unnecessary.
It simply can't be denied, just hope that SWE becomes a fundamental for a more complex job, though we'll see I guess.
"It simply can't be denied" - haha, AI didn't take even 1% of SWE jobs, so it won't take any significant amount in any near future, your 2 years predictions are a joke - here I just denied it.
Although the central thesis of the significance of the (both liberating and dysfunctional) economic opportunity created by broadening participation in media is correct, one of the modulating/countervailing elephant-in-the-living room issues is that the FAANG have monopolized the Internet which is stagnating opportunities for startups software development. The video is overly pessimistic because of the lack of decentralization which he alluded to in the prior video (The Age of Making Money is Over). Correct that people are not going to download new apps (pita!), but they will visit new websites. So apps just need to become websites (the standalone app is nonsensical). And we need to decentralize everything to open up all the opportunities again for programmers and innovation. No disrespect intended because Patrick Shyu is knowledgeable, observant and intelligent, yet he may not be a visionary (after all he took a job at Google and I coded and marketed million user software more than once by myself or in small startups). Afaics, he is analyzing without any vision for how to innovate out of the stagnation of the current monopolization paradigm which incidentally is helping the self-immolation of Western civilization as the scapegoat for the end of the post-WWII (especially post-1970s) globalization, debt bubble.
You cannot operate on patterns, but on facts. And this why AI will fail, at least for now. It is possible that we won't need developers anymore, 1985 is not 2024.
@@yuki2413 I agree 1985 is not 2024. But neither is the technology even remotely close. There are new APIs, libraries, programming paradigms, interaction paradigms, UI/UX designs, operating systems, hardware interfaces, hardware designs, input interfaces, and countless other new developments constantly shaping technology. AI will not "create" these ideas, nor will it be able to implement them in its current state. AI, IMO, will always be AT LEAST one step behind human innovation, and it will depend on humans to develop the blueprints for AI to operate from. It might even get to the point that by the time AI catches up to the newest technology, the tech will have moved on to the next iteration. Eventually, the cost to teach the AI may not justify its usefulness in some fields. It is all speculation for now, and I am a big proponent of AI. It can improve productivity efficiencies in many industries and really help with automation in brand new areas. I just don't think it is going to replace all of our jobs in the foreseeable future. Right now, AI has helped search and information gathering technology take an evolutionary step. I look forward to what comes next.
All those "digital nomad influencers", as you put it, rely on technological tools to reach their audiences. Software engineers are required to build and maintain those tools. There is definitely a lot need for programmers and there will keep being a need for them for the foreseeable future. The trick is that, like many other jobs before, this one is transitioning into a more "mass production" pace, where there will be a foundation of lower-skilled, "menial" workers, doing simpler maintenance work on web apps, and a smaller pool of high-skilled engineers working on more complex products.
Massive layoffs and now hiring freezes. I hate to admit he is right.
He is right, but there are layoffs and hiring freezes for just about every role tech or not. Coding will just morph back to people that actually enjoy doing it instead of people just doing a quick bootcamp to try and make money

Qualcum let go 25% of their employees and replaced them with seasonal migrant workers and asylum seekers.
It seems contradictory that 200,000 tech employees were laid off, considering big companies typically maintain reserves, especially during times like the COVID-19 pandemic when people stayed indoors, and tech firms experienced substantial profits. The tech market is normalized right now. So he’s not that right and also has a profit with making fear and negative news like a lot of his videos lol.
@@weishi5286which one in the USA?
Even people who actually are suited to be an entrepreneur, 99% of those people fail. That’s the reality of it. No matter how hard you work, how good your ideas are or how suited you are to it, there are so many other factors at work outside of your control. Like the story behind bill gates for example. Not just being in the right place at the right time, so many other aspects had to perfectly fall in life for him to succeed. Almost all of that was out of his control. If you’re gonna do that it’s a lot less work to just buy lottery tickets. Same chance of success.
The reality is the smart thing to do is minimize risk of failure and focus on what’s realistically attainable. Sure, try starting a TH-cam channel like everyone else. But it doesn’t matter how good content you make if nobody ever sees it, which is the outcome for just about everyone. Give it a try. Maybe that agorithim will make your dreams come true, but probably not
Somewhat true. These guys always get survivorship biased..
There is a difference between failure and just have a working business (not the super skyrocketing super company). Getting a working business with lots of rationalism, self control and business skills is still 80% possible. But yes entrepreneurs fail to 90% because most are more stupid then my retarded cat.

He's usually somewhat right, but his projections are usually around a few years in advance, for this one it seems alot more in advanced.
This one time he was talking about the meta verse and how it would fail so he sold his stocks. It came true months laters.
This other time I think around 2019-2020, he started talking about how inefficient most tech companies were by the ratio of their employee size and they would most likely lead to mass layoffs in the future. It's been happening more and more after 2020. Following his past ideas on this topic and this idea in this video I wouldn't be surprised again if he is right considering new global talents and that AI technologies increases exponentially.
His predictions in the past may seem obvious, but just remember that's all in hindsight and he also gave more reasons as to why than what I typed (I typed the general idea) but when he upload those videos he got alot of flack and many comments disagreeing at the time
He is pretty close.. i would get an advanced degree focusing on building AI

You are so right. It's a field where you add value deliver results solve a problem. And like you say that's the only way to really make a living

It's going to be conversational generated code, but you're still going to need to know fundamentals of code design and architecture, so it's not going anywhere.

People thinking AI can even replace junior developers are delusional. If AI reaches a level where it can completely replace a junior developer then it will probably be able to replace every developer since the most important thing that a developer has to do before writing code is to understand the codebase the connections and how they are expected to do things to not cause problems for the rest. AI right now offers just a little assistantance explaining things or recommending solutions that arent exactly right or need work. Also the one using it should still understand what the code does because if they dont understand they cant know if the answer is correct or not. This wont change anytime soon and if it does it will replace everyone not just junior devs.

Basic coding is going to disappear, but maintaining million-line projects that can only be described in 10000 page documents, where concepts are ambiguous, and you need 1 million samples to test the system properly, well those jobs will stay here a little longer. Also leadership skills are still going to apply, and the instinctive ability to break down large systems into smaller parts, negotiate between teams, making sure customer expectations are met, that there are no misunderstandings, that's going to be here for the time being. And it has higher social status, the Team Lead. Coding is deceptive, because if it was easy to explain a problem, we wouldn't need coders. The issue is that certain problems are inherently complex and can't be explained in a few basic sentences. Natural language often doesn't help you when a formal description is needed. I think leadership and communication are going to be increasingly more important. Entrepreneurship could become more important. If AI can take over the job of 400 employees, there's still going to be that single person who's running them, the entrepreneur, and maybe every person in the world will become an entrepreneur, when we're no longer employable by large corporations. And when a single AI can do the job of a million workers, there are no more companies, only individuals.

I went to tech school in the early '80s to learn about computers. They told me that they weren't training up to be programmers. That's grunt work. They were training us to be systems analysts.

I spent a week learning how to write a file text parser and then automate it in powershell, chat GPT did this in less than 10 seconds with full working code.
You also could've probably just googled it, then copied a solution from Stack Overflow? Generative AI is fundamentally word guessing with a sprinkle of context. Oftentimes you can find AI code verbatim copied from a text source you could've found with a couple googles anyways.
However, now you understand the inter-workings of your text file parser, and can tweak it to your exact needs.

Agree about the close future of programming, but...
It's crucial to challenge the misconception that React was created solely for 'bad' programmers. Programming, like any field, spans a wide range of skill levels, and React simplifies complex tasks for developers at all levels. Following this logic, you could claim that automatic gears were designed for bad drivers, garbage collection for developers who struggle with memory management, and programming languages for those who can't work effectively in assembly.
Regarding the perceived higher status of creative professions over coding, it's vital to realize that many people genuinely love coding, with some being passionate about both fields. For instance, I'm an example of a music composer and programmer at the same time, enjoying programming just as much as composing music. Creative professions and programming both have their unique rewards and challenges, and they aren't immune to technological impact. AI, including personalized content generation, will reshape creative fields as well as programming. The belief that creative jobs are untouchable by technology is unfounded.
The arrogance in assuming that creative professions are invulnerable is unwarranted. Creative jobs are just as replaceable by AI as technical jobs, if not more so due to fewer regulations. Today, creative work is often judged by mass appeal, but AI will take it a step further by creating individualized art, music, movies, and more. For example, AI can create virtual bloggers tailored specifically to you, and no human blogger can compete with that level of personalization

The day coders are no longer needed is one day after when many many other fields are no longer needed.
The medicine field could also be replaced by AI at this point, except for what requires physicality like surgeries. Still, it has not. Why? Convenience. If one wants to be a programmer in 2024, what they need to do is research skills in demand, learn then, prove that they can code them, and be patient. Internet and the "fast life" culture has changed everything for the worse, I truly mean it. What also changed is that, in the past, younger people used to learn the skills of their families and earn a living from them. If your father was a farmer, you would probably end up as a farmer too. Another gargantuan issue is the fact that menial jobs barely earns someone a living anymore, so you have the young struggling to date, have a family, own a home and become independent. The psycopathy and stupidity of the previous generations will result in mass chaos in the future. Young men are especially violent if they don't have what they need. But people will keep on living while pretending that others are not struggling to live aswell, and so crime, confusion, and uncertainty will plague set in, more and more on society.

After recovering from a seven-year illness, I began looking for ways to support myself and explored various fields.

Keyboard without a numpad is huge no no
Except my keychron keyboard and likely his can be programmed with VIA and do have a numpad . I don't have arrow keys or numpad that physically can be seen, it is on another layer, which means my arrow keys and numpad are in the same place as my normal keys, what I am trying to say is the way my keyboard is setup, I never have to move my hands and everything is in easy reach and you have everything you need. Layer 1 makes my number row the F keys, layer 1 has my arrow keys, work macros, numpad, and on and on. Layer 0 has the normal alphabet, except I made my pinky delete and moved the colon key. I also made capslock delete, etc.
I like having a numpad but it makes the keyboard too wide which hampers my mouse movement.
That's why I switched to 80%. Entering long numbers is annoying but I do that rarely.

Im predicting In 5 years AI will be able to code everything perfectly as long as a senior guy sits and designs the app. Junior engineering may die.
@@sercan272727exactly. Especially on the web dev side. I see AI taking most web dev jobs by 2025.
@@sercan272727 not true, coding is not just to code but also to build. AI can't build but be a helper tool to write code so as to built
don't worry techLead. If it's too slow. I''m make a script that can do it fast. if the script is slow then I'll buy a new pc. if the new pc + the script is too slow then I'll adopt 20% ai to help me speed up things, because ai sucks depending on your use case
For anyone who doesn’t understand, this is peak coding humor
I have a friend that works as a swimming instructor in somoa he doesn't make a lot but he gets to swim with turtles all day and his job feels real.
What path do you recommend instead of coding then?
Focus on data. Monetize data.
Coding using the advertised keyboard
Tik tok live matches 😅😅😅
I really appreciate that this guy answered the question in the first 30 seconds of the lab, rather than drag it out.
Coding is a job that has a limited operational life. Coding burn out a reality. Most coders I know quite or career swap at about 15 years.
I'm 29 years in software development, still find it attractive but not profitable enough
What do they switch to?
@@davekohler5957 I would like to know what they switch to as well.
I have some back up plans for when I get burned out.
Maybe trying to become a commercial pilot or something like that, even though the pay is low or some type of easy government job with benefits.

You joke about PHP, but all the trendy modern frameworks are now moving towards server components. Meanwhile those using PHP and Laravel are going, "what took you so long"
Ngl man what is a new general skill you can learn.like ik the trends have changed but i have no idea how to prepare for it at this point
Honestly, this is a problem I've been facing. The only think I was able to get for a new general skill was studying power dynamics and system dynamics
Wrong: 1. I work in IT industry and have TH-cam channel that about to be monetized, if it won’t I wouldn’t stress out about it as I have a real job 2. Market is not over saturated, my wife is an HR and I can tell it’s almost impossible to hire people, as people don’t want to work after covid 3. No one missing social media revolution or whatever you called it, in fact everyone posting tik toks and have high expectations when in reality did not want to learn and grind 4. People from all over the world taking software jobs in us, as example should I mention how many people from India in industry . In fact I am immigrant myself and in states since 2007, but as citizen of this country I would only encourage people to get into it and keep on learning, at the end that’s how you made it to where you are in life right now…
Any solid places to learn coding? would blockchain coding be better?
Programming or almost any IT skill is commodity these days. Too many people can do that and not enough high paying jobs for that. And my favorite keyboard is Leopold, old school sturdy thing made in Japan. Love it!
That's a good joke. Try finding people who are even semi-competent developers.
@@EdmondDantèsDE Define competent, perhaps your expectations are just too high
leopold is actually korean made LOL
@@jp87757 no, it’s Korean company but manufactured in different countries
I kind of agree. I've been working in IT since 2015 and it seems like the starting pay hasn't gone up hardly at all. Like I'm trying to move and find a new job, currently make $37/hr at my job, but any starting pay where I want to go is like $20/hr (I started out at $18/hr in 2015). Not gonna happen. Companies know that entry-level tech support is pretty basic. Mid-level support is becoming simpler thanks to MDM's, and so many services are cloud-based and no longer require managing servers on-prem. So the level of knowledge required is lower, there's less physical equipment to manage, and any major issues are usually a problem with the company you outsourced your services to.
I love this channel because it's an amazing insight into the head of NPCs. Hearing something like "status is everything" said so honestly and hearing the arguments so eloquent and summarized, gives clear insight into why so many people are so miserable even if there is nothing wrong in their lives.
Am I lucky that I have never even thought about any status? :D And I hope I won't from now on :D
Yes. Mr Shyu is a very empty person and black pilled attitude is what caused him to loose his job at Facebook and loose his wife and child. What a miserable life that is indeed.
@@YuTv1408exactly this is how 1 lashes out to seek attention when there is nobody left in his miserable life. This is what depression and disassociation leads to this level of negativity...
Life is much easier and more enjoyable when you don't care about status.
I need to watch this video everyday, to keep a thought of fear alive, there will be some drastic changes in this field for sure
The part about there being two types of coding, slave labor and entrepreneurial coding, is very true. Anyone who has worked a SWE job and tried to launch their own start up idea will understand.
you don't understand the point that this man pushed you to click and watch his video! and that is what he needs .. next video you see him contradict his ideas just to pull you more to watch and be engaged... that's his game in the first place from the first yt video.
If someone jumped into coding now then they'd be competing with people in India who works at half the price. Not worth it
The same has already been said decades ago. Yet most companies who try to outsource to India get burned.
A much better alternative for outsourcing is Eastern Europe but as a result it's not that cheap anymore since wages have risen.
@@EdmondDantèsDEwtf you smoking. India tends to feed programmers into all the silicon valley companies. The only thing keeping wages low in India are the huge number of new devs unlike dying Europe. Even then the wages are increasing drastically
You basically shouldn't outsource at all imo. Amazon and Google just set up new engineering campuses in India. The ones who work there are not the low/zero skill people who work at outsourcing firms like TCS/Wipro
@@da_revo5747 tell that to tech Giants lol that's why they pay little to no taxes
yeah, I've seen some devs from India doing complex jobs with ridiculous rates.
The creator of Python, Guido van Russum, is still programming; even while retired and earning 10 million a year. The pleasure of figuring things out is mote valuable than money for some ppl.
These arguments may feel new, but this type of rhetoric has been around forever-e.g., your time has passed, they’re enslaving you, etc. Most of the viewpoints presented here are biased and loaded with gross generalizations. Nearly everyone who tries to predict the future fails. I do enjoy your flat display of hubris-maybe it’s just dry humor. This one gave me a good laugh, and the presentation is uniquely entertaining. That said, the tech world is very much experiencing an adapt or die situation; perfect for innovation. Just because you can’t imagine a new future that hasn’t been created yet it doesn’t mean we should all quit our careers, become social influencers, or go tour the world. I commend you for finding a way to do what you love, but you’re presenting a very narrowminded set of options. New opportunities for coders and designers will emerge. We will carry on, in one form or another. Happy holidays!
Coding transcends the boundaries of traditional engineering, elevating it to an art form akin to playing the piano. It's a creative process, where each line of code is like a note, collectively creating a symphony of functionality and innovation. Computers, the most intelligent devices humans have ever created, have become integral to our daily lives. We spend countless hours with these machines, relying on them for a myriad of tasks and entertainment. However, without the knowledge of coding, we miss a crucial opportunity. Coding is not just about instructing a computer on what to do; it's about understanding its language and potential. It empowers us to push the boundaries of what's possible, to make computers perform more complex, more interesting tasks. In essence, not learning to code is akin to having a beautiful, high-performance instrument at our disposal, yet never learning to play it. As we reflect on the hours spent in the company of these digital wonders, a tinge of regret may emerge for not having delved deeper, for not having learned to harness their full potential. In an age where technology shapes our world, coding is no longer just a skill; it's a form of expression, a way to interact with the most sophisticated tool humanity has ever crafted.
so ?
