#152 - Why AI Won't Replace Software Developers (Yet) but It Might Make You a Worse Developer: A Deep Dive

Develop Yourself

Let's tackle the widespread fear that AI will replace software developers. Get a high level overview of how AI and large language models like ChatGPT work and why they produce such mid code.
We go over why junior developers should limit their AI usage or risk becoming exceptionally mediocre developers as well as a better way to use AI as a junior dev.
There is one occupation more at risk than developers of being automated: content creators! We explore how AI is creeping into the content space while everyone is freaking out about developers being replaced 🙄.
Here's an AI project using OpenAI API I've shared before that might be useful if you know some JS already: https://github.com/CodeCoachJS/ai_starter_kit
