• Nice deal here – get a FREE 1 month trial of Skillshare https://skl.sh/techlead02241

  And then, learn to ace your coding interviews with ex-Google/ex-Facebook training. https://techinterviewpro.com/

• Software engineering will balance out, it will never be this easy money generator as it was a few years back. It will become something like being a doctor or a mechanical engineer, paid well but it takes mountains of work and dedication to become established in the industry.

• you making another million token ?

• why all of your videos are on this topic, lol.

• Learn to cope. 🙃

• Techlead

  The world needs people like you regardless they like you or not. Keep it up fren

• TechLead is mostly cynical depressed and depressing others. His attitude is "Who cares?" as he spews lots of facts and sit in his Left Coast office. Not very informative, not sure he is accurate or just cherry picking data to support his depression.

• programing as a hobby, making games/apps/websites until you make the next flappybird or something seems viable..
  ud think with AI, yeah it can code, but also YOU can use it to code for you.. perhaps taking the role of a project manager where you direct the AI in the direction which is best for the thing you are designing.. imagine a stonemason becoming the architect

• After just one year of chatting with the AI, I now watch all my YouTube videos at 2x speed.

• Got here by No Agenda Podcast Show

• Making it as an influencer is akin to trying to make it as a rock star or a professional athlete. You can make a lot of money if you are in the top .1%, otherwise you are probably working for free.

• You did warned us…

• Coding and software engineering are two completely different things.
  ChatGPT can barely do the former and none at all of the latter. ChatGPT is a fluke.
  I myself am not a coder, and not a software engineer. I am L2 support engineer. I work closely with coders and boy oh boy! You have to think of every little thing for them if you want to get something that will be even remotely usable after they leave. So yeah, if coding in a form that it is in right now is dead, good riddance!
  My advice to would be coders, if you think that you are going to learn Python and that will make you indispensable, you might as well write a Goodby World program instead of Hello World and move on to sewers.

• Oh good, and I am heading STRAIGHT INTO that disaster with a tech degree.

• Vegetating must be the funniest term i’ve heard to describe people mindlessly scrolling tiktok. I must admit short form content can be insanely engaging. Can spend 1 hour in the blink of an eye

• Just want to say that in India companies make you work 12 hours a day, work from home also, and ask you to do 4 people's jobs for 1/4th salary (around 180 usd more or less/ month) after a 5-year experience. Newbies are asked to work for free.
  
  Then every year they kick out and hire new. But they do not care because there are 100 coders ready to replace one.
  
  Population is just too much

• #DontLearn2Code

• graduating with a CS degree in ~4 months. FML then yeah

• You're great! Love your sense of humour. Keep up the 'blunt' videos.

• Shilling for Skillshare as if it matters. As a millionaire.

• Don't listen to this slant-eyed grifter, even people with senior positions in AI companies have said that there'll be a while before AI takes over most jobs in tech.

• The "industry" caught onto the gold rush or at least is adjusting to today's roadmap to becoming an SWE or dev. College is no longer the 'set' path.

  Information is highly accessible more than ever.

  Life is all about cycles and patterns. There ARE jobs out here. I must say I am grateful to have one.

  The 'industry' in general knows the future is autonomous. And what took a large team of devs to accomplish in the past is no longer the case.

  There will always be humans needed for SWE work. But technology advances more and more each day. Tools are built to make building more seamless too.

  I expect cybersecurity and ethical hacking work to increase due to AI and easier build tools to ship apps and/or services.

• I code all of the time and no one uses it. If I can do it you can do it too.

• Yes, everyone is coding now… and the code they produce is an absolute pile of garbage that merely mimics the appearance of working. Because this is what dumb people learned from a dumb GPT. So they will go on to produce yet more copy pasta code to submit to github that will be re-fed into GPT making it dumber and dumber.

• Hmm. #LearnToCode

• Nah, layoffs are happening because lending standards have tightened.

• dude is being overly pessimistic

• That is depressing, this hit me like a wall. So now I need to spend 10 years learning how to be a bitcoiner.

• The comparison to plumbers who bill more than attorneys was a miss.

• Software is still eating the world. It's everywhere in everything. I still think it's a bright future for software engineers. Finance and payment systems. Logistics. eCommerce. Medical tech systems. Data analytics. Accounting. Automobiles. Etc, etc, etc.

• I would love to see what the algorithm is serving this guy

• There are so many things wrong with this video, I don’t know where to start.

  For one, social-media “influencers” like Pokimane have nothing to do with the industry’s need for coders.

  Two, there will ALWAYS be a need for coders. It may not be in the “sexy” fields like VR, streaming, or video games, but there is a TON of software-based plumbing behind the scenes that needs to be constantly fixed, maintained, and improved upon.

  And three, don’t disparage a person’s passion for coding by comparing it to a “passion” for ice cream. It’s the passionate coders that will keep driving the tech industry forward. The non-passionate ones will be weeded out during the tough times, but that’s to be expected.

  Bottom line is that you may be smarter than most of your viewers, but that doesn’t make this video accurate or beneficial for those who are watching it.

• Great vid, but its not 50/50 of millenials that either work in a dead-end job or are an influencer. I understand it to highlight it, but unfortunately it only feeds the image

• Joe Bidet said to the the rifted coalminers "you can always learn to code". The Yellen & Bidet smoke & mirrors show continues.
