Social media is the new OS

A former google techlead talking about how programming is dead and ChatGPT won’t save it

What he seems to mean is that you can't easily make millions with minimal effort as a programmer. This is a rather high standard, but if you can make millions with NFT scams like him then fair enough.

His latest video on a similar theme is a little more convincing and depressing.

I program every day.  You cannot do non-mainstream stuff without programming.  AI and other non-code tools just let you create mainstream stuff which also tends to be unreliable.

This guy is basically failed modern scum.  He desperately wants to succeed as modern scum, but can't.  When the dollar finally collapses, these people will starve.  Then real skills will have value again.  Of course marketing is a skill that will always have value and doesn't require one to become a popular clown.
