I think ultimately like sweating those details is still going to be important.

Even if all the AIs are doing all sorts of code and stuff like that, it's still important for somebody to sweat the details and make sure everything is smooth and works as expected and all this other stuff.

Yeah, I mean, I think the people who are in the best position to take advantage of all this are either...

The problem is whether or not that actually anybody will accept that and get it to production.

those engineers are the ones who are just going to, you know, just run wild with this, right?

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source
Building the machine that builds the machine (Interview)

You know, and I think in that case, if you give like product focused engineers the ability to actually like freely create things and iterate on it, what you'll see is like a small team having a productivity level that's like a hundred or a thousand times greater than what you get before.

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source
Building the machine that builds the machine (Interview)

And you'll have teams of like,

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source
Building the machine that builds the machine (Interview)

two to four people producing what used to take a team of like a hundred engineers, right?

Much more time.
