The hospitals are making more money.

You have more patients in the hospital.

You need more radiologists.

I mean, the amazing thing is it's so obvious this was going to happen.

The number of software engineers at NVIDIA is going to grow, not decline.

And the reason for that is because the purpose of a software engineer and the task of a software engineer of coding are related, not the same.

I wanted my software engineers to solve problems.

I didn't care how many lines of code they wrote.

You know, but their job, their purpose of their job didn't change.

Solving problems, working as a team, diagnosing problems, evaluating the result, looking for new problems to solve, innovation, connecting dots.

You know, none of that stuff is going to go away.

And the reason for that is this.

What is the definition of coding?

I believe that the definition of coding as of today is simply specifying, specification, and maybe if you want to be rather directive, you could even give it an architecture of the software of the year you wanted to write.

So the question is, how many people could do that?

Describe a specification for a computer to go, telling the computer what to go build.

How many people?

I think we just went from 30 million to probably 1 billion.

And so every carpenter in the future will be a coder, except a carpenter with AI is also an architect.

They just increased the value that they could deliver to the customer.
