Provocative, but there's some good ideas in this video (although I can never tell when this guy is serious or not. Seems like an INTJ).
I have a suspicion that coding/software engineering as a career will not be as glamorous in the future as it was in the past 20-30 years. Basically, AI is coming for office/white collar jobs too. So far we created programs that were very good at a specific task (like chess), but the trend we see now is that of generative AI, that can actually produce stuff like images, text, code etc etc. Most of the information that we find online at the moment is produced by humans, be it Wikipedia articles, blogs, forums etc etc. However, there's no reason why we cannot and will not have generative AI as a search engine. For example, on this twitter thread you can see "stock pictures" created by AI: https://twitter.com/dergigi/status/1564919491317964803
That would be a seismic shift that would drastically change the future of work and society.
What are your thoughts on all this?
