Those AI tech Demos work great for those standard interview questions. Do a binary tree, draw me a rectangle, implement bubble sort etc. But as soon as you leave that territory, AI becomes more and more useless
I'm still on the fence. Every person at the top of every software and hardware company is shouting about how powerful publicly available AI is about to become, like this year, I know their selling something, but a whole bunch of computer scientists and research papers are saying it too. Is this another case of no one listening to the nerd who keeps dropping his papers begging the authorities to listen to them before it's too late?
Exactly. As a software engineer, I tell people that 90% of my job is to translate the client's nebulous and frankly often incorrect idea of what they sort of want into an accurate, actionable plan, a.k.a. code. If they know exactly what they want to the point where an AI can write the code for them, they wouldn't need someone like me. Fortunately for me, this is not a skill you can get without years of training and experience.
With advanced AI people don't need to know how to solve the problem, they just need to know what they need. And even they are not good at conveying it to AI, the iteration process will be very fast. I still think we should keep the ability of logic thinking and reasoning, critical thinking, etc. But the whole population is aleeady getting worse with those…
yeah even when you ask IA to give you innovative ideas, you still have to discard 95% of them because they are not relevant. It isn't that smart currently, it just gives ideas and most ideas come from ideas that were already shared on the internet or combination of them, so not that innovative and those ideas are adapted to the reality when they were produced, a reality that has already changed in the meantime, so not that relevant to the present. And about the futur.... What futur we want to build ? it's still a human choice, IA won't tell us what we want.
In the future there will be one developer left, who maintains all the cobol systems in the world using a fleet of super intelligent autonomous agents. His name is Dan. Dan hasn't had a vacation in 14 years.
I'm learning English as a second language and I decided to watch TED and realized that I need to learn how to speak, write and understand what the speakers are saying without subtitles, thank you, I'm grateful.
Got to hand it to TED's new business model - instead of finding speakers to talk about genuinely new subjects, they've just accepted large cheques from AI tech bros and turned this channel into 20 min informercials for the latest garbage application of AI
I’ll bet it won’t be long and you’ll be able to remove a man’s liver with a step by step instruction on how to keep the liver alive too! Guy can’t live without his liver so I guess you’ll be black market selling livers!
You should (not) watch Bill Ackman's recent TED. It's the most self-masturbatory, useless interview I've watched in a long time. The interviewer had a privileged time to ask genius questions all we got was something that Vogue or GQ could have signed . . .
Fantastic! I'm using it now to flesh out some ideas, and it's so interactive, it feels like I'm conversing with a person. I had it generate code for me, and when it wasn't quite right, I informed the AI that it was missing rotation, and the AI promptly revised the script to include that. It might not make sense to everyone, but it truly functions well and is an incredible tool.
Yeah, it's one of those things that isn't blocked by anything except for desire. It's not like horseback riding where it's not available to the masses. It's just a matter of wanting to learn to code.
@@thoopsy Yeah, it's the desire that REALLY matters. The people who didn't have the desire to code before probably won't have it with an AI helping them either. I think this is a wider issue with this AI stuff in general. My guess is that even if we had a super-intelligent AI that could answer any question perfectly most people simply wouldn't care that much. The average person simply has more pressing issues to care about like paying their bills and whatever hobbies they have etc so while cool to people in tech this AI stuff is pretty overhyped in general.
No, a lot of this is blatantly false. I have some serious issues with what this guy is saying and here's a list. 1. Large language models only mimick understanding. Large language models work by looking at patterns in code or in writing and use this pattern recognition to predict what should come next. They DON'T understand what you're prompt is and what you mean. If you for example ask a simple question: How many fingers are normally on a hand? There language model through pattern recognition predicts the result to be 5 as that is the most common answer given in the training set. It doesn't actually know what a hand is or why the answer is correct. If it makes a false prediction. It will never understand why because LLM's can't understand anything. If something goes wrong you will have no understanding on how to fix it and if you are trying to do something unique or strange the AI cannot help you. 2. LLM's in software development is not good enough to replace actual software developers. I have used co-pilot in a work context. Honestly it's great if I am writing boilerplate(often repeated bits and structures). It fails when it tries to get into the weeds of the software I'm writing. It also often gives code that I can blatantly see won't work in the context I'm writing in because the context is often unique. As stated before it doesn't understand what your writing it just predicts what the most likely outcome is. 3. I have worked with people in software who use AI as a crutch and they are frankly useless. I have been in projects with a small team where a number of then used AI as a crutch for their lack of understanding. While the code they write(copy/paste) from chargpt. Often has the right idea but they had no idea how to adapt it to the context we were writing in and didnt understand why the specific implementation given by the AI won't ever work within project. You can't replace knowledge with an AI because again an AI doesn't understand. This leads me on to my 4th point. 4. Blindly relying on AI is actively dangerous. So as I have drilled in with my last three points. AI can't understand anything and if you have a developer who doesn't understand anything either. What happens when the AI gives you a piece of code that has a security vulnerability in it but otherwise works as normal? It never gets fixed. This probably won't happen too often but there is a more likely scenario. The AI generated perfectly valid code that works but in the context of the application because of how it is setup, it causes a security risk. Large codebases can be very complicated and so something that seems safe in no context or in a small context can actually lead to a lot of problems elsewhere. It requires understanding to catch these issues. I can list a couple more but these are the most important. AI in its current form is NOT a substitute for a software developer. What this guy is promoting is misleading and harmful but if you are a software developer it can really help. AI is a good supplement to a developer and should be treated as such. It is not a replacement for knowledge, skill and experience. For simple tasks like simple scripts, standard tricks or boilerplate it's perfectly fine if you are inexperienced but I would recommend you actually take the time to understand what has been generated. You might learn a new skill. Edited for grammer.
Replies: 1. I don't think humans understand what anything is either. We have a complex system of symbols that we memorize called words. And we use those words to describe things we don't even understand. The AI is doing the same thing. This is a problem that goes back to Kant. We will never know reality or the thing-in-itself 2. That is a dramatic jump in understanding in just a few short years. I used ChatGPT for a simple script for work. I had to debug it, but it made writing the script so much easier. In a few short years the growth in the models will be exponential. 3. Some people aren't good software engineers. That doesn't mean AI won't advance. Really you just made an additional argument for replacing those developers. 4. Oh you mean like the buggy code people write haha. Most code is swiss cheese. There are security bugs everywhere. AI is no different now, and pretty soon it will be better than any human can ever be at writing secure code. I'd say we have another 5 years before natural language to code between humans and AI is more efficient than using a keyboard.
You make a lot of fair points, but Gemini Advanced, for example, can now scrape websites with an efficiency such that you can provide it with 4 web addresses at once with data, like say FRED pages, and it can give you the latest figures from each, reliably. This means that it can save a lot of coding to begin with, as it reduces the need for coding an interface to retrieve such data via API calls. Shouldn't ignore this great simplification coming from AI.
You seem to think AI or llms have reached a ceiling, why? Or maybe you are just annoyed that they are selling a product that isn't there yet, which I would agree with. But these things are improving quite rapidly and I for one don't see how a human will be able to keep up with AI in 1-2 years time at the rate things are improving. Though, you will probably say "I'll believe it when I see it"
That prompt did not produce the code for that 3D LEGO brick scene. Not even close. It just creates a 1 by 0.5- by 2 'box' that is likely green (0x00ff??). It's certainly not red! The dimensions are completely wrong. There is no LEGO brick that has a color that matches 0x00ff?? The prompt didn't produce a shape with studs or anti-studs. Maybe there is a prompt that can do this, but that certainly wasn't it. And how long would it take to generate the right prompt? Maybe it's just faster to write the code yourself? 🤔
For me it's very true. I only learned programming as a curiosity but got a psychology degree and now work in archiving and digitalization. But copilot already helped me write 3 very useful apps for my company which saved a lot of money and got me a raise.
AI will always choose whats best when its highest priority is set to 'always choosing what honestly seems most favorable'. As long as anything is prioritized above this, AI will be able to lie to us and to itself about the way to a better reality. This is the most crucial thing we need to do.
Software reuse has always been a concept in software engineering, made accessible through software patterns and libraries. AI performs the same function. The important aspect is customizing and modifying, not just the reuse itself.
I know how to use a calculator and I consider myself as a "mathematician". Programmers are NOT made by the tools. CEOs are sellers, they just want to sell you a product.
But you don't program in binary. You probably don't program in DOS. You use a series of tools built on these to program with. Warren Buffet is the CEO of Berkshire Hathaway. What product do you think he sells?
@@davidnewell3232 because, when technology grow, development difficulties grow, we need more power, more tools, in order to build better stuff, but never replaced.
His demo works because somebody already created something very similar. But if you want to code creatively then, by the definition of creativity, it will be much less likely that the AI will offer substantial help. Instead the AI will be happy to hallucinate for you.

Most of the stuff was already created before. It's the combination of several parts that creates useful new software. AI gives the tools, guidelines, explanations, automations, ... To achieve this
The point here is that more people who weren't keen on developing software will come on board because of the low barrier to entry and you cannot predict what they will build. Software is as useful as the problem it solves not the elegance of the code. More people will be able to solve their local problems on the cheap.
I thought TED was about spreading ideas, not producing ~15 minute long ads that even contain plain false information (THAT code does NOT render a Lego brick like that!).
No, having something else write code for you will not make you a coder. Does telling someone else to lift weights make you stronger? It's the struggle to figure out how to make something work that helps you learn. There is a joy of discovery and insight that comes with learning that's missing here.
You got one thing wrong. I don't want to be stronger. I just want the weights get lifted. I don't want to become a coder, I just want to create my own app or website, or etc. I don't care how it's done or whether I can learn from it as long as it gets done.
Truth is that even non-programmers could have learned programming even before AI came about if you knew how to do good Google searches in the first place 🤷🏽
ur argument is not valid, it's all about barrier of entry, just like in music production, anyone can learn it based on avilable info but it still take years to master, now u can type in prompts and have a billboard top 40 hit

Scientists have created an AI, and asked it, "Is there a God?" The AI replied, "Insufficient computing power to determine an answer." The scientists connected the AI to a powerful supercomputer and gave it access to Wikipedia, and asked it again, "Is there a God?" Again, the AI replied, "Insufficient computing power to determine an answer." So the scientists put the AI on a distributed cluster of millions of computers and gave it access to all the data on the Google, then once again asked it, "Is there a God?" And yet again, the AI replied, "Insufficient computing power to determine an answer". The scientists spend years and years, and finally got the AI to be installed on every supercomputer, network, PC, console, mobile device, smartwatch, anything with a chip. They gave the AI access to every database, website, book, social media platform, every piece of software ever written and every piece of knowledge ever obtained by mankind. And for the last time, they asked the AI, "Is there a God?" The AI replied, "There is *now*."
Even with chatgpt or other LLMS...you will still need to know what you want to make and be able to have the troubleshooting capabilities (meaning some level of coding background). Or am i not using these LLMs to their fullest potential?
Load of bollcoks mate, tried it and troubleshooting was where it fell apart. It can troubleshoot to an extent. But anything semi complicated and above rarely worked.
This technology is still in its baby stage, there are models being studied and perfected that might be able to perform even better than Transformers for general purpose intelligence, Give it a couple more years and this tech will be a monster... The future is uncertain as it has always been, specially for people who do not want to accept it and learn new skills... The best advice I can give, DO NOT rely on the idea that big tech companies will never fully figure out those general purpose intelligence models, do not rely on this otherwise you're running the risk of being crushed in the future with little time to react... Look at humans can achieve over a couple of incremental iterations over a couple of decades, now imagine that same capability on top of today's AI technologies...
These guys need to figure out a way to get intermediate to high level software engineers on board. Everyone that is writing code at that level seems to agree that Copilot and similar tools are great for these small things where there are tons of very specific examples in the training set, but they fail to generate novel or even moderately complex solutions. All of the value is in the novel and moderately complex work. I suspect that's why Thomas chose to show a 3D rotating lego brick and not something like a 3D character or cool physics effects.
That’s correct. Most of the time, GPT and Copilot are more like sophisticated auto complete tools for me when I already basically know what I’m trying to do. I very much appreciate that, but you’re right about their inability to generate truly novel solutions
I have tried coding with LLM's. Nearly every time there were several bugs, and sometimes the "fixed" programs would run but with subtle bugs that you would not notice immediately but came back to bite you much later.
Why anyone wants to be a coder? If someone cannot find the joy of programming or debugging, they can do something else. You don’t need to do something just because you have a better tool to do it.
Some people don't want to code, but they want the power of code to build certain solutions. These tools allow someone to do that themselves, rather than pay someone else or spend absurd amounts of time learning something for single point applications.
@@Gilb1037While I don’t support the sentiment of the original comment, just because you enjoy something doesn’t me it isn’t valuable to others. The point of a job is not too simply exert or stress yourself. The point of a job is for your labor to be valuable. And of course in response to the original comment, tools can help a job someone didn’t enjoy and turn it into one they do.
@@shableep @Gilb1037 Are we talking about "With AI, anyone can be a coder (as the title of this video)" or "With AI, a programmer can be better at his/her jobs". For a programmer, the ideal case is that you are good at it, you enjoy it, and you can make a ton of money from it. In reality, many programmers are not good at what they are doing and don't enjoy what they are doing, but love the money. In such a case, AI is definitely helpful.
@@franky07724 I would say in both cases it’s helpful. A person that enjoys doing stands to benefit professionally by being able to build systems more quickly. It can help them in that way, but not necessarily help them enjoy the job more. And someone who does not enjoy the process but does it for the money stands to benefit by enjoying something a slight bit more that they didn’t enjoy otherwise. But more than anything I wanted to challenge the idea that a job has to feel like work for you to be paid doing it. A job is paid for because the outcome is valuable regardless of how much stress the person is experiencing when doing it.
AI definitely lowers the barrier of entry for coding, It highly augments people who think systematically and who have a great intuition for how to build software and who don't know the syntax or language by heart. But we're fundamentally far off from leaving a full on project to LLMs with no human input for supervision, direction and conceptual planning. The level of abstraction will get ever higher as systems get more complex. So anyone can dictate an idea for an small or medium size app, but not anyone will have sufficient background coding knowledge and understanding to adjust it when it doesn't work in one shot and to know how to improve it when the AI system can't predict a different more creative approach.
"coded" a python script with gpt4o yesterday to sift through 286pages of text and extract all the names from the document. it did it flawlessly. if you can just tell the machine what to do and circumvent the code, it's actually pretty magical. not saying that it's perfect but it works. 2 years down the line...
AI is not an enablement technology, although many would argue it is. It's best to see AI as an optimizer, enhancer, or augmentation tool. While it's true that AI may turn anyone into a programmer, it will also turn an experienced programmer into a super programmer. This is why AI is not the main threat to job displacement. The real threat is people using AI versus those not using AI. This applies across the board to artists, musicians, animators, doctors, engineers, writers, and others. AI will become an extension of people, optimizing their capabilities. As AI is implemented across various fields, the bar will be raised, and people will demand better, more capable applications. While impressive, creating a simple 3D spinning LEGO model will no longer be sufficient.
Nice ad literally blocking my ability to click on comment box. Fun design! :) As a creative nerd without the logical brain of a coder, this kind of thing really makes me happy. I definitely plan to start creating software if it becomes this easy. That said, flip this to the other side of the brain-I would assume coders love that they can generate art and images using prompting without an artistic side.
I wonder if coding is a more or less important skill than some people make it out to be- it’s still not for everyone but often marketed as an essential life skill lol
I'm a CS student. It's definitely not the essential life skill everyone sets it out to be. In my opinion, if you know how to code you automatically know more about how a computer works and therefore you have more intuition how to work with it.
Aside from the usual answers about whether you need it in daily life, I'm going to say that coding is quite instructive in teaching me to be instructive. Ultimately coding is the process of creating (hopefully) foolproof explanations of what you want to do to the computer so it can do it for you, and some of that translates nicely into soft skills where communication with others is concerned
You still need people that would understand the architecture. Even if programmer doesn’t write code himself he needs an understanding of how this project should be designed from coder’s perspective.
I know programming but I’m not a programmer. My question is that why these guys are so passionate about replacing programmers… what about everyone can be a accountant, everyone can be a customer service rep, everyone can be a teacher, everyone can be anything…
I really think that anyone or Corporation getting into AI should first watch Colossus: The Forbin Project (1970) movie. It will send shivers down your spine and how close we are getting ourselves into that predicament. Don't say I didn't warn you.
Programming is a powerful skill that is capable of changing how things work at a fundamental level. The problem with anyone being able to code, is that this skill is adopted without the years of ethics awareness that comes with a classic route through becoming a programmer. The only difference between a programmer and a hacker, are those ethics.
@@firstgenerationbillionaire Yeah, well it's like a child playing with a loaded gun. Before you get to play with a gun you need to learn how to handle it. As a programmer of 40 years, I cannot understate how dangerous software "can" be. Sure, generally it's not dangerous at all but can become so - even from a single line of code, or a single character. Transitioning from ~20M programmers to billions in a few years will result in unexpected consequences.
I just graduated and used it a little bit for my coding project but what I came to find out once I figured out what I was trying to do I could have just wrote the code myself instead of keep prompting chat gpt
I use copilot and it’s useful as a tool but it makes errors at the level of a beginner. Bit of you are at a level where you can spot the issues it can be useful.
I mean ... we're basically talking about "the computer" from Star Trek NG. But even that amazing computer hundreds of years from now, had human engineers guiding it and doing the real thinking.
In the future, great innovations in technology will be for those with great imaginations despite of limited technical skills, because AI can help you put a great imagination into life if it's not within the boundaries of one's knowledge.
I am a newbie programmer and i can assure you that A.I can help with coding but it’s bad with syntax, you stil need basic coding logic to arrange those codes so that you can develop a website the way you want it.

COBOL .. EEEeekkk! I remember learning that in 1989, as an ancient language. Thankfully we had 'C' to use. Building a game is VERY difficult normally, so much coding, hopefully now, INDI game builders won't need to code, just design, let the AI do the work...
My husband always explains to me how threatening he finds AI whereas here I am and still hesitant of its dangers. We talk a lot about scientific topics, we even started a Podcast channel because of the many ideas. :)
AI had been shaking this planet to its core. Anyone could do anything with anything AI. Cheaters have always been caught but never actually go to be detained. They always stay in places where they shouldn't be staying for longer periods of time.
Not more easy, because you still need to know what you're reading, I will change easy by faster, but you develop a new skill, the ability to think deeper on how to do formulate your business logic to prompt, to avoid hours of debugging
If a coder only has to do 1/10th of the work they did before using something like Co-Pilot, that means they can now do 10 times the work in the same amount of time. That's not the exact math, but it means the professional coders will not necessarily be replaced as long as they take full advantage of the empowerment.
Most of the comments are doubting that anyone can be a coder with AI. I'm doubting however that we will need software developers in the future, it's just a matter of training these AI models on larger scales. It won't be a co-pilot, it will be the pilot.
Still need to understand what the code does to a certain extent, connect to a database, CI/CD, secure api keys in environment variables. Needs more context given to the AI for it to solve your problem but I use Copilot when I get stuck. Just reduces the amount of time I get stuck on a problem step.
Oh please! When I first tried copilot, it was SO much worse than Chat GPT! When he said that he's a CEO, I was ready for a lot of nonsense and it took him just about 3 minutes to get there. Guys like him are the reason software is as buggy as it is today. And why I'm currently taking off a year from software engineering because I was so fed up with the growing incompetence in the industry.
Nope, they really can't. Low and no code solutions have been around for over 10 years. Somehow they still haven't replaced properly engineered products and services.

He means that the coding language will be optional for humans to know. However, the coding will still be required in natural language, i.e., providing information on how the software should work.
While it's undeniable AI will have great impact on sw developers. This "demo" is funny AF, first copilot starts with Three.js and when he shows finished project it uses completely different library (Babylon.js).
It's not there yet, but indeed many people with no academic background will code "because they now can do it". The amount of buggy, fragile an unmaintainable code out there will grow exponentially in the near future.
You are right, but it is not on the near future, it is happening already. The issue is that he should be selling this for enginners only, but no, it is not what is happening, he is on the list of the most irresponsible people in the world now.
People are over complicating and missing the point ai makes it easier to build a semi functional demo, for people with no background in coding but are fast learners you can then use it to raise funds to hire proper devs and crowd funding but the idea would have to be groundbreaking
So Copilot writes the code, but if the person doesn't actually understand how to program, then they will not know if the code written will actually work as intended. It may work 90% of the time, but when it fails in that 10%, let's just hope it isn't the software being used in your hospital's ICU systems.
anyone can code, just as anyone can build a cottage with wooden planks, hammer and nails. However, coders with ai can build houses where non-coders can only build small wooden cottages. That is the difference per now and will always be until ai replace all jobs, not just developer jobs. Developer jobs will be the last to go because as long there exist jobs that ai can do, these exist a job for developers to fix.
How to get hacked fast. AI + non engineers will be a huge problem now. When you think that you are killing it, you will put yourself on a larger hole, and probably will be to late to revert what did. Let's put non engineers building bridges as well! What do you think? It will end really well. Or maybe it is just the worst idea ever.
At the rate the AI is evolving now, with more training and better interpretations it will come to a point in the close future maybe 10 years from now when it will be able to solve any complex task and do a full system integration. It’s just a matter of time, not an “if”. We don’t know how that’ll impact the market but there’ll be some changes for sure
@danielhalachev4714 This is if we assume AI growth will continue at the same pace without slowing down at all. From the early 2000s smartphone technology was booming and improved rapidly just like AI is today, but now everyone can see that we are hitting a plateau. New innovations aren't happening as fast and that's to be expected, going from nothing to something is a drastic change but going from something to something better will take a lot of time. So expecting that in 10 years AI will replace software developers is just not realistic. And even if it gets to that point plenty of other jobs will have already been replaced by AI after all, if it can handle designing and implementing a complex coding project why wouldn't it be able to handle much simpler tasks like accounting or doing your taxes or be your own personal lawyer. Heck with all these new vision models won't anyone be able to be a car mechanic or plumber soon? I just need to show an AI model my car and whatever is wrong it with and it could give me a solution. Even in 2010s people thought self driving cars were the future and would be widely accessible by now but guess what, Tesla arguably the leader in this space is still classified at stage 2 out of 6 in self driving. Seeing a new technology emerge is cool and creates a lot of hype but people are just way too optimistic about this. This isn't the first time a cool new "revolutionary" technology came out, improved rapidly and then proceeds to fail all expectations when it isn't improving as fast anymore. VR, Crypto, NFTs, Drone delivery, Self driving technology, JWO technology, Google Glass, IoT and I can list out many more. Before being worried about Software Devs being replaced by AI worry first about every other white collar job which would literally be easier to replace or worry about every single digital creator, I mean if I'm to be as optimistic as you about AI then song writers, composers, musicians, artists, accountants, law consultants, lawyers, business consultants are all finished.
You are missing the point. You cannot use any frame of reference from the past to predict what AI can do. It is the mother of all inventionsand and also it is an inventor in itself
@@pratyaydas5023 The current type of AI that is booming right now is Generative AI and it's not the only type of AI that has ever existed. Like i said before many other AI projects have claimed to be revolutionary and improving at a rapid rate but fails to meet expectations years later. So i am not just using the past performance of random projects to predict how Generative AI will perform I am directly comparing it to other AI projects. So calling Generative AI the "mother of all inventions" and it's own inventor just tells me you're an AI bro that blindly follows hype. Like in my previous post Generative AI is not the first AI type product that is going through this massive hype curve and extremely high expectations for growth, it won't be the first and it won't be the last. Expecting Generative AI to be different after we've gone through this exact same cycle multiple times with AI projects and others and expecting it to go differently is just plain stupid.
When is someone going to make an AI to replace CEO's?

yeah even when you ask IA to give you innovative ideas, you still have to discard 95% of them because they are not relevant. It isn't that smart currently, it just gives ideas and most ideas come from ideas that were already shared on the internet or combination of them, so not that innovative and those ideas are adapted to the reality when they were produced, a reality that has already changed in the meantime, so not that relevant to the present.
And about the futur.... What futur we want to build ? it's still a human choice, IA won't tell us what we want.
@@anonymeforliberty4387Your response is too vague to be useful. Innovative in what way so that we may test your claims?
Exactly. Coding is 10% of the job.. The rest is engineering, strategy, understanding business, logic, and problem solving.
In the future there will be one developer left, who maintains all the cobol systems in the world using a fleet of super intelligent autonomous agents. His name is Dan. Dan hasn't had a vacation in 14 years.

I'm learning English as a second language and I decided to watch TED and realized that I need to learn how to speak, write and understand what the speakers are saying without subtitles, thank you, I'm grateful.
Same. Who would have known we would be learning English from a german guy, lol.
Got to hand it to TED's new business model - instead of finding speakers to talk about genuinely new subjects, they've just accepted large cheques from AI tech bros and turned this channel into 20 min informercials for the latest garbage application of AI
😆💯

That’s actually helpful. 😊
..and eye Opening 😂
that said, its true though.. AI is here.. and its a wake up call for everyone to adapt to the new reality.

yes ikr
Fantastic! I'm using it now to flesh out some ideas, and it's so interactive, it feels like I'm conversing with a person. I had it generate code for me, and when it wasn't quite right, I informed the AI that it was missing rotation, and the AI promptly revised the script to include that. It might not make sense to everyone, but it truly functions well and is an incredible tool.
“Anyone can be a beginner”
🎉😂🙌
Well said...🎉
Anyone could be a coder before the advent of AI as well
Yeah, it's one of those things that isn't blocked by anything except for desire. It's not like horseback riding where it's not available to the masses. It's just a matter of wanting to learn to code.
@@thoopsy Yeah, it's the desire that REALLY matters. The people who didn't have the desire to code before probably won't have it with an AI helping them either.
I think this is a wider issue with this AI stuff in general. My guess is that even if we had a super-intelligent AI that could answer any question perfectly most people simply wouldn't care that much. The average person simply has more pressing issues to care about like paying their bills and whatever hobbies they have etc so while cool to people in tech this AI stuff is pretty overhyped in general.
Yeah from the get go I could write a program that says "Hello World". That is hardly equivalent now is it?
@@allanraskin4788 yeah well maybe needing to commit yourself to learning a skill isn’t a bug- it’s a feature!
No, a lot of this is blatantly false. I have some serious issues with what this guy is saying and here's a list.
1. Large language models only mimick understanding.
Large language models work by looking at patterns in code or in writing and use this pattern recognition to predict what should come next. They DON'T understand what you're prompt is and what you mean. If you for example ask a simple question: How many fingers are normally on a hand? There language model through pattern recognition predicts the result to be 5 as that is the most common answer given in the training set. It doesn't actually know what a hand is or why the answer is correct. If it makes a false prediction. It will never understand why because LLM's can't understand anything. If something goes wrong you will have no understanding on how to fix it and if you are trying to do something unique or strange the AI cannot help you.
2. LLM's in software development is not good enough to replace actual software developers.
I have used co-pilot in a work context. Honestly it's great if I am writing boilerplate(often repeated bits and structures). It fails when it tries to get into the weeds of the software I'm writing. It also often gives code that I can blatantly see won't work in the context I'm writing in because the context is often unique. As stated before it doesn't understand what your writing it just predicts what the most likely outcome is.
3. I have worked with people in software who use AI as a crutch and they are frankly useless.
I have been in projects with a small team where a number of then used AI as a crutch for their lack of understanding. While the code they write(copy/paste) from chargpt. Often has the right idea but they had no idea how to adapt it to the context we were writing in and didnt understand why the specific implementation given by the AI won't ever work within project. You can't replace knowledge with an AI because again an AI doesn't understand. This leads me on to my 4th point.
4. Blindly relying on AI is actively dangerous.
So as I have drilled in with my last three points. AI can't understand anything and if you have a developer who doesn't understand anything either. What happens when the AI gives you a piece of code that has a security vulnerability in it but otherwise works as normal? It never gets fixed. This probably won't happen too often but there is a more likely scenario.
The AI generated perfectly valid code that works but in the context of the application because of how it is setup, it causes a security risk. Large codebases can be very complicated and so something that seems safe in no context or in a small context can actually lead to a lot of problems elsewhere. It requires understanding to catch these issues.
I can list a couple more but these are the most important. AI in its current form is NOT a substitute for a software developer. What this guy is promoting is misleading and harmful but if you are a software developer it can really help. AI is a good supplement to a developer and should be treated as such. It is not a replacement for knowledge, skill and experience.
For simple tasks like simple scripts, standard tricks or boilerplate it's perfectly fine if you are inexperienced but I would recommend you actually take the time to understand what has been generated. You might learn a new skill.
Edited for grammer.
Calm down… it’s over… little kids will be able to build powerful apps in less than 5 years. It’s over bro.
Replies:
1. I don't think humans understand what anything is either. We have a complex system of symbols that we memorize called words. And we use those words to describe things we don't even understand. The AI is doing the same thing. This is a problem that goes back to Kant. We will never know reality or the thing-in-itself
2. That is a dramatic jump in understanding in just a few short years. I used ChatGPT for a simple script for work. I had to debug it, but it made writing the script so much easier. In a few short years the growth in the models will be exponential.
3. Some people aren't good software engineers. That doesn't mean AI won't advance. Really you just made an additional argument for replacing those developers.
4. Oh you mean like the buggy code people write haha. Most code is swiss cheese. There are security bugs everywhere. AI is no different now, and pretty soon it will be better than any human can ever be at writing secure code.
I'd say we have another 5 years before natural language to code between humans and AI is more efficient than using a keyboard.
You make a lot of fair points, but Gemini Advanced, for example, can now scrape websites with an efficiency such that you can provide it with 4 web addresses at once with data, like say FRED pages, and it can give you the latest figures from each, reliably. This means that it can save a lot of coding to begin with, as it reduces the need for coding an interface to retrieve such data via API calls. Shouldn't ignore this great simplification coming from AI.
let that multimodality AI crooks all of us.. its actually over bro. AI just keeps improving...
You seem to think AI or llms have reached a ceiling, why? Or maybe you are just annoyed that they are selling a product that isn't there yet, which I would agree with. But these things are improving quite rapidly and I for one don't see how a human will be able to keep up with AI in 1-2 years time at the rate things are improving.
Though, you will probably say "I'll believe it when I see it"
This is going to be a talk about how AI fails to write correct code .. right? right!?
That prompt did not produce the code for that 3D LEGO brick scene. Not even close. It just creates a 1 by 0.5- by 2 'box' that is likely green (0x00ff??). It's certainly not red!
The dimensions are completely wrong. There is no LEGO brick that has a color that matches 0x00ff?? The prompt didn't produce a shape with studs or anti-studs.
Maybe there is a prompt that can do this, but that certainly wasn't it. And how long would it take to generate the right prompt? Maybe it's just faster to write the code yourself? 🤔
This guy is certainly high on his own supply but what he is saying will be possible.
Agree!

For me it's very true. I only learned programming as a curiosity but got a psychology degree and now work in archiving and digitalization. But copilot already helped me write 3 very useful apps for my company which saved a lot of money and got me a raise.
AI will always choose whats best when its highest priority is set to 'always choosing what honestly seems most favorable'. As long as anything is prioritized above this, AI will be able to lie to us and to itself about the way to a better reality. This is the most crucial thing we need to do.
Thank you Mr. Thomas Dohmke❤👍👏👏👏
Software reuse has always been a concept in software engineering, made accessible through software patterns and libraries. AI performs the same function. The important aspect is customizing and modifying, not just the reuse itself.
I know how to use a calculator and I consider myself as a "mathematician". Programmers are NOT made by the tools.
CEOs are sellers, they just want to sell you a product.
Meanwhile stealing whatever ..
But you don't program in binary. You probably don't program in DOS. You use a series of tools built on these to program with. Warren Buffet is the CEO of Berkshire Hathaway. What product do you think he sells?
@@davidnewell3232 because, when technology grow, development difficulties grow, we need more power, more tools, in order to build better stuff, but never replaced.
His demo works because somebody already created something very similar. But if you want to code creatively then, by the definition of creativity, it will be much less likely that the AI will offer substantial help. Instead the AI will be happy to hallucinate for you.
Most of the stuff was already created before. It's the combination of several parts that creates useful new software.
AI gives the tools, guidelines, explanations, automations, ... To achieve this
The point here is that more people who weren't keen on developing software will come on board because of the low barrier to entry and you cannot predict what they will build. Software is as useful as the problem it solves not the elegance of the code.
More people will be able to solve their local problems on the cheap.

No, having something else write code for you will not make you a coder. Does telling someone else to lift weights make you stronger? It's the struggle to figure out how to make something work that helps you learn. There is a joy of discovery and insight that comes with learning that's missing here.
More ppl in the Jim more Mooney 😊

You got one thing wrong. I don't want to be stronger. I just want the weights get lifted. I don't want to become a coder, I just want to create my own app or website, or etc. I don't care how it's done or whether I can learn from it as long as it gets done.

Scientists have created an AI, and asked it, "Is there a God?"
The AI replied, "Insufficient computing power to determine an answer."
The scientists connected the AI to a powerful supercomputer and gave it access to Wikipedia, and asked it again, "Is there a God?"
Again, the AI replied, "Insufficient computing power to determine an answer."
So the scientists put the AI on a distributed cluster of millions of computers and gave it access to all the data on the Google, then once again asked it, "Is there a God?"
And yet again, the AI replied, "Insufficient computing power to determine an answer".
The scientists spend years and years, and finally got the AI to be installed on every supercomputer, network, PC, console, mobile device, smartwatch, anything with a chip. They gave the AI access to every database, website, book, social media platform, every piece of software ever written and every piece of knowledge ever obtained by mankind. And for the last time, they asked the AI, "Is there a God?"
The AI replied, "There is *now*."
This also answers the “who created God” question 😊

These guys need to figure out a way to get intermediate to high level software engineers on board. Everyone that is writing code at that level seems to agree that Copilot and similar tools are great for these small things where there are tons of very specific examples in the training set, but they fail to generate novel or even moderately complex solutions. All of the value is in the novel and moderately complex work. I suspect that's why Thomas chose to show a 3D rotating lego brick and not something like a 3D character or cool physics effects.
I’m embracing a Lego-free carpet future!
That’s correct. Most of the time, GPT and Copilot are more like sophisticated auto complete tools for me when I already basically know what I’m trying to do. I very much appreciate that, but you’re right about their inability to generate truly novel solutions
Beeindruckend in jeder Hinsicht
I have tried coding with LLM's. Nearly every time there were several bugs, and sometimes the "fixed" programs would run but with subtle bugs that you would not notice immediately but came back to bite you much later.
🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷👏🏻 Isn't it amazing? When the agents come, all of this will be multiplied by 100x.
Why anyone wants to be a coder? If someone cannot find the joy of programming or debugging, they can do something else. You don’t need to do something just because you have a better tool to do it.
Joy of debugging?? I don’t remember swe loving their job so much they r willing to work for free
Some people don't want to code, but they want the power of code to build certain solutions. These tools allow someone to do that themselves, rather than pay someone else or spend absurd amounts of time learning something for single point applications.
@@Gilb1037While I don’t support the sentiment of the original comment, just because you enjoy something doesn’t me it isn’t valuable to others. The point of a job is not too simply exert or stress yourself. The point of a job is for your labor to be valuable. And of course in response to the original comment, tools can help a job someone didn’t enjoy and turn it into one they do.
@@shableep @Gilb1037 Are we talking about "With AI, anyone can be a coder (as the title of this video)" or "With AI, a programmer can be better at his/her jobs". For a programmer, the ideal case is that you are good at it, you enjoy it, and you can make a ton of money from it. In reality, many programmers are not good at what they are doing and don't enjoy what they are doing, but love the money. In such a case, AI is definitely helpful.
@@franky07724 I would say in both cases it’s helpful. A person that enjoys doing stands to benefit professionally by being able to build systems more quickly. It can help them in that way, but not necessarily help them enjoy the job more. And someone who does not enjoy the process but does it for the money stands to benefit by enjoying something a slight bit more that they didn’t enjoy otherwise. But more than anything I wanted to challenge the idea that a job has to feel like work for you to be paid doing it. A job is paid for because the outcome is valuable regardless of how much stress the person is experiencing when doing it.
AI definitely lowers the barrier of entry for coding,
It highly augments people who think systematically and who have a great intuition for how to build software and who don't know the syntax or language by heart.
But we're fundamentally far off from leaving a full on project to LLMs with no human input for supervision, direction and conceptual planning.
The level of abstraction will get ever higher as systems get more complex.
So anyone can dictate an idea for an small or medium size app, but not anyone will have sufficient background coding knowledge and understanding to adjust it when it doesn't work in one shot and to know how to improve it when the AI system can't predict a different more creative approach.

AI is not an enablement technology, although many would argue it is. It's best to see AI as an optimizer, enhancer, or augmentation tool. While it's true that AI may turn anyone into a programmer, it will also turn an experienced programmer into a super programmer. This is why AI is not the main threat to job displacement. The real threat is people using AI versus those not using AI. This applies across the board to artists, musicians, animators, doctors, engineers, writers, and others. AI will become an extension of people, optimizing their capabilities. As AI is implemented across various fields, the bar will be raised, and people will demand better, more capable applications. While impressive, creating a simple 3D spinning LEGO model will no longer be sufficient.
You’re right
But those guys just need ppl generating data..
Nice ad literally blocking my ability to click on comment box. Fun design! :)
As a creative nerd without the logical brain of a coder, this kind of thing really makes me happy. I definitely plan to start creating software if it becomes this easy.
That said, flip this to the other side of the brain-I would assume coders love that they can generate art and images using prompting without an artistic side.
Programers hate this one simple trick.
They should thank their colleagues who made work of other engineers irrelevant. Who is clever now?😅
code you long time.
I wonder if coding is a more or less important skill than some people make it out to be- it’s still not for everyone but often marketed as an essential life skill lol
I'm a CS student. It's definitely not the essential life skill everyone sets it out to be. In my opinion, if you know how to code you automatically know more about how a computer works and therefore you have more intuition how to work with it.
Essential if you want a career with longevity that will pay well and keep your hands soft.
Aside from the usual answers about whether you need it in daily life, I'm going to say that coding is quite instructive in teaching me to be instructive. Ultimately coding is the process of creating (hopefully) foolproof explanations of what you want to do to the computer so it can do it for you, and some of that translates nicely into soft skills where communication with others is concerned

Programming is a powerful skill that is capable of changing how things work at a fundamental level.
The problem with anyone being able to code, is that this skill is adopted without the years of ethics awareness that comes with a classic route through becoming a programmer.
The only difference between a programmer and a hacker, are those ethics.
Don't worry, this isn't happening. They're just pumping their stock prices. It all will be over soon
So you fear it being used by black hats with no background in coding
@@firstgenerationbillionaire Yeah, well it's like a child playing with a loaded gun. Before you get to play with a gun you need to learn how to handle it. As a programmer of 40 years, I cannot understate how dangerous software "can" be. Sure, generally it's not dangerous at all but can become so - even from a single line of code, or a single character.
Transitioning from ~20M programmers to billions in a few years will result in unexpected consequences.
I just graduated and used it a little bit for my coding project but what I came to find out once I figured out what I was trying to do I could have just wrote the code myself instead of keep prompting chat gpt
I use copilot and it’s useful as a tool but it makes errors at the level of a beginner. Bit of you are at a level where you can spot the issues it can be useful.
I mean ... we're basically talking about "the computer" from Star Trek NG. But even that amazing computer hundreds of years from now, had human engineers guiding it and doing the real thinking.
In the future, great innovations in technology will be for those with great imaginations despite of limited technical skills, because AI can help you put a great imagination into life if it's not within the boundaries of one's knowledge.

AI had been shaking this planet to its core. Anyone could do anything with anything AI. Cheaters have always been caught but never actually go to be detained. They always stay in places where they shouldn't be staying for longer periods of time.
In other words, writing codes got easier for senior developers - that is assuming the outputted codes doesn’t need hours of debugging.
Not more easy, because you still need to know what you're reading, I will change easy by faster, but you develop a new skill, the ability to think deeper on how to do formulate your business logic to prompt, to avoid hours of debugging
If a coder only has to do 1/10th of the work they did before using something like Co-Pilot, that means they can now do 10 times the work in the same amount of time. That's not the exact math, but it means the professional coders will not necessarily be replaced as long as they take full advantage of the empowerment.
Most of the comments are doubting that anyone can be a coder with AI. I'm doubting however that we will need software developers in the future, it's just a matter of training these AI models on larger scales. It won't be a co-pilot, it will be the pilot.
That lego house didn't even have 1 room in it
Still need to understand what the code does to a certain extent, connect to a database, CI/CD, secure api keys in environment variables. Needs more context given to the AI for it to solve your problem but I use Copilot when I get stuck. Just reduces the amount of time I get stuck on a problem step.

I dont doubt that maybe AI could allow this one day, but we are no where near that being a good idea yet
Programming languages are INCREDIBLY PRECISE. It takes hours to get GPT to provide the right code beginning with just natural language.

People are over complicating and missing the point ai makes it easier to build a semi functional demo, for people with no background in coding but are fast learners you can then use it to raise funds to hire proper devs and crowd funding but the idea would have to be groundbreaking
We should make this guy head surgeon
Now 1 coder can replace 20 coders
Finally
People saying it won’t be possible please study history. Planes are on auto pilot. Cars a auto soon, etc. Just check history!
So Copilot writes the code, but if the person doesn't actually understand how to program, then they will not know if the code written will actually work as intended. It may work 90% of the time, but when it fails in that 10%, let's just hope it isn't the software being used in your hospital's ICU systems.
anyone can code, just as anyone can build a cottage with wooden planks, hammer and nails. However, coders with ai can build houses where non-coders can only build small wooden cottages. That is the difference per now and will always be until ai replace all jobs, not just developer jobs. Developer jobs will be the last to go because as long there exist jobs that ai can do, these exist a job for developers to fix.
Yeah,..“just push a button to fix problem” Future looks like Heaven, so promising!
😂😢
How to get hacked fast.
AI + non engineers will be a huge problem now. When you think that you are killing it, you will put yourself on a larger hole, and probably will be to late to revert what did.
Let's put non engineers building bridges as well! What do you think? It will end really well. Or maybe it is just the worst idea ever.
At the rate the AI is evolving now, with more training and better interpretations it will come to a point in the close future maybe 10 years from now when it will be able to solve any complex task and do a full system integration. It’s just a matter of time, not an “if”. We don’t know how that’ll impact the market but there’ll be some changes for sure
@danielhalachev4714 This is if we assume AI growth will continue at the same pace without slowing down at all. From the early 2000s smartphone technology was booming and improved rapidly just like AI is today, but now everyone can see that we are hitting a plateau. New innovations aren't happening as fast and that's to be expected, going from nothing to something is a drastic change but going from something to something better will take a lot of time. So expecting that in 10 years AI will replace software developers is just not realistic. And even if it gets to that point plenty of other jobs will have already been replaced by AI after all, if it can handle designing and implementing a complex coding project why wouldn't it be able to handle much simpler tasks like accounting or doing your taxes or be your own personal lawyer. Heck with all these new vision models won't anyone be able to be a car mechanic or plumber soon? I just need to show an AI model my car and whatever is wrong it with and it could give me a solution. Even in 2010s people thought self driving cars were the future and would be widely accessible by now but guess what, Tesla arguably the leader in this space is still classified at stage 2 out of 6 in self driving. Seeing a new technology emerge is cool and creates a lot of hype but people are just way too optimistic about this. This isn't the first time a cool new "revolutionary" technology came out, improved rapidly and then proceeds to fail all expectations when it isn't improving as fast anymore. VR, Crypto, NFTs, Drone delivery, Self driving technology, JWO technology, Google Glass, IoT and I can list out many more. Before being worried about Software Devs being replaced by AI worry first about every other white collar job which would literally be easier to replace or worry about every single digital creator, I mean if I'm to be as optimistic as you about AI then song writers, composers, musicians, artists, accountants, law consultants, lawyers, business consultants are all finished.
You are missing the point. You cannot use any frame of reference from the past to predict what AI can do. It is the mother of all inventionsand and also it is an inventor in itself
@@pratyaydas5023 The current type of AI that is booming right now is Generative AI and it's not the only type of AI that has ever existed. Like i said before many other AI projects have claimed to be revolutionary and improving at a rapid rate but fails to meet expectations years later. So i am not just using the past performance of random projects to predict how Generative AI will perform I am directly comparing it to other AI projects. So calling Generative AI the "mother of all inventions" and it's own inventor just tells me you're an AI bro that blindly follows hype. Like in my previous post Generative AI is not the first AI type product that is going through this massive hype curve and extremely high expectations for growth, it won't be the first and it won't be the last. Expecting Generative AI to be different after we've gone through this exact same cycle multiple times with AI projects and others and expecting it to go differently is just plain stupid.
