Knowing *what* to code and build has always been more important than the code itself. AI has fundamentally not changed that. What you get out of it i… - Guillermo Rauch

An easy tell for how good an engineer is is what % of their time they spend on instrumentation, measurement, profiling, telemetry, analysis (and how well they leverage this expertise during incidents).

For AI to outperform human coders, the context and prompt will need to be enriched with data from the live production system. This will lead to self-improving, self-repairing software.

AI paradoxically will make us more human. The machine will solve the hard computational and scientific problems that our brains simply cannot keep up with. Writing code getting delegated to AI is the canary in the coal mine.

Few things better in life than the freedom to build your own ideas.

We want as many people as possible to have a chance to experience it.
