And you need to be that product manager, and now you're starting to move your concerns up, and you need to know all the engineering stuff.
And uh, like Jeffrey Emmanuel, like I was talking about, he's a mathematician, self-taught engineer.
He doesn't, but he he's learned all of the right concepts, and you know, you know, Cloudflare does this and and Apache Cassandra does that.
Yeah, that is still technical.
That is still
That doesn't go away.
You still need to learn all that, right?
And so just because you don't have to write code anymore doesn't mean you have to you still have to learn a massive amount of stuff to be an effective engineer in the new world because that's the level that you're interacting with them at.
I feel like the gossip rate has gone up.
Like not gossip, but the the rate of exciting announcements by engineers who have discovered new things about how to be more productive with agents.
Um like for example, yeah, I just found out today, not not this, I was I found out today about uh it's called code MCP or something like that, where you uh Yeah.
Instead of calling Pretty popular project.
The agents can't call MCP very effectively because they don't have any training on tool calls.
But they have plenty of training on writing code.
So you tell them don't call the tool, write code to call the tool, and they do way better with it, right?
So it's like it's all these little learnings that we're finding, right?
Are just
You could almost define an AI engineer as somebody who's mastered LLMs.
Yeah, using.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
