Unless you’ve been hiding a rock you’ve probably heard the hubbub over Devin the new AI Software Engineer that is going to take your job.

While this is a genius piece of marketing … it’s a bunch of crud.

Never fear, you are in no more danger of losing your job in Software than when ChatGPT and CoPilot hit the market. In fact, the opposite is true, there will be more Software jobs than ever, not less.

AI tools might look pretty in a video, but in reality, by those who use them, the are very bad at programming still and don’t do a very good job. Most of what a Senior Engineer does that makes them Senior is not that spitting out of gobs of code. Any dingdong can do that.
