Lenny's Podcast: Product | Career | Growth · How tech workers actually feel about AI in 2026 | Annual AI sentiment survey (Noam Segal) · 12 Jul 2026 podcast

And a certain percentage of our roles are transforming into something else.

And then the second thing that people are saying that they're finding enjoyable is that they are able to manifest things that they've wanted to build that seemed impossible not very long ago.

You know, um, and that, and that's whether it's in their main job or things that they're doing on the side, et cetera.

So it is still for many people in tech, an exciting time and an enjoyable time because we can do things that we never thought we'd be able to do because they're outside of our role, because they're outside of what felt technically feasible or for other reasons.

We did ask people how worried they are about being laid off.

And as you can see, 72% of our sample are worried to a certain extent about being laid off and 41.2% are at least moderately worried about being laid off.

So it is clear that people are feeling that they might be cutting the branch that they're sitting on.

When it comes to using AI, people are reporting that their company is going all in on agents, all in on these technologies.

And it does feel like they may be pushed out.

at some point.

So the worry level is high.

And I think if you're watching this, you're starting to notice that there's a ton of ambivalence right now in the community and a ton of clashes between emotions.

feeling energized and enjoying my job.

And at the same time, not being very optimistic about it and feeling tired from it and feeling worried that all of that enjoyment is going to end one day when the company I work for decides that I'm no longer needed.

I think there's something addictive about this technology.

And I'll speak for myself a second and say that, you know, I've also experienced

never had as much fun in my career as when using these technologies.

And I've been using it for too many hours a day, playing about and building.

I think many of us, even those who aren't as energized by the technology, we still feel like we're in this fascinating technological playground.

And it's very, very hard to disengage from that technology and touch grass, read a book, whatever you love to do in your spare time as well, Lenny.
