Musicians are often more effective at telling truth to power than journalists or experts. Like him or hate him, Teddy Afro deserves credit for his willingness and courage in saying through song what he sees as failures in Ethiopian politics. Listen!

@reda_getachew @USEmbassyAddis Addis Ababa, Ethiopia — U.S. Ambassador Ervin Massinga did a good job visiting Welkait and Gondar in the Amhara region. Mai Kadra is known for the genocide of the indigenous and local Amhara people by the TPLF. Hearing directly from the right people and local administration.

Today, I acknowledge the important work of the clergy in communities. I had the pleasure of hosting members of the clergy, alongside my colleagues Chairman @RepHorsford (NV-04) and @RepLucyMcBath (GA-06) to discuss community issues including gun violence and food insecurity.

Airlines in #Africa are expected to earn a collective net profit in 2024.

While this is welcome news, the expected $100 million profit, translates into just 90 cents per passenger—well below the global average of $6.14.

The #Amhara people of Ethiopia: One of the greatest Semitic cultures of the globe
- Amharas are known to be Joktanites, descendants of the Sabaeans/Himyarites and ancient Israelites
-Amharas are heirs of the Axumite empire
-The language of Amharas, Amharic, is the 2nd most-spoken Semitic language in the world, 2nd only to Arabic
-The Amhara monarchy and kingdom is known as the Solomonic dynasty, the oldest surviving dynasty in the world until 1974, claiming descent from King Solomon and the Queen of Sheba

# automating software engineering

In my mind, automating software engineering will look similar to automating driving. E.g. in self-driving the progression of increasing autonomy and higher abstraction looks something like:

1. first the human performs all driving actions manually
2. then the AI helps keep the lane
3. then it slows for the car ahead
4. then it also does lane changes and takes forks
5. then it also stops at signs/lights and takes turns
6. eventually you take a feature complete solution and grind on the quality until you achieve full self-driving.

There is a progression of the AI doing more and the human doing less, but still providing oversight. In Software engineering, the progression is shaping up similar:

1. first the human writes the code manually
2. then GitHub Copilot autocompletes a few lines
3. then ChatGPT writes chunks of code
4. then you move to larger and larger code diffs (e.g. Cursor copilot++ style, nice demo here https://t.co/u8ueY0mGxZ)
5....
Devin is an impressive demo of what perhaps follows next: coordinating a number of tools that a developer needs to string together to write code: a Terminal, a Browser, a Code editor, etc., and human oversight that moves to increasingly higher level of abstraction.

There is a lot of work not just on the AI part but also the UI/UX part. How does a human provide oversight? What are they looking at? How do they nudge the AI down a different path? How do they debug what went wrong? It is very likely that we will have to change up the code editor, substantially.

In any case, software engineering is on track to change substantially. And it will look a lot more like supervising the automation, while pitching in high-level commands, ideas or progression strategies, in English.

Good luck to the team!

I'm eager to learn more about the role of the first AI software engineer and its impact.
