AI is making people lazy, even typing a detailed prompt is becoming tiresome nowadays!

After 3 incredible years and 1.6M students later, my journey at ALX Africa has come to an end.

It has been a life-changing experience, during which I made a lot of friends, worked with an incredibly dedicated team, and met so many talented students.

A few numbers. We scaled from a few thousand students to 1.6M students on our platform. Students loved it and many of them took more than one course: 4M total! For the famous #ALX_SE Software engineering program, our SE students made an average of 2,000 commits and our checker reviewed 180M of their projects. That’s 2B lines of code… and that was before Claude Code. They actually wrote these themselves (unless Kimba said otherwise :)

A big thank you to all my SE team mates, I am so proud of what we have accomplished, and I will really miss you all. Thank you to Fred for the trust he put in me and always supporting my crazy new and disruptive ideas.

Thank you to my students. It was an honor to work with you, watch you struggle but relentlessly move forward, no matter what, until you got this job. To those who are still struggling finding this job, keep pushing forward. Don’t let go. You got this. You all have worked so hard and I am so proud of you. You are the greatest thing I've ever been part of and I can't wait to see what impact you will have on the world. It’s your turn to shine now, and hopefully for some of you to give back to the community whenever you are in a position to.

I hope you’ll keep sharing the good news with me when you get this internship, this job, or when you launch your company. These messages are everything to me. In any case, I’ll be watching you from afar, and you can count on me to continue answering all your LinkedIn and X messages.

Can’t conclude without ALX Africa’s signature: continue to “Do Hard Things”. Remember who you are, where you are coming from, and where you set out to go. I’ll see you there soon.

With love.

Overall AI in Software Development , the positive impacts outweighs the negative impact

Impact of AI in Software Development:
AI is a game changer in coding. I have coded without it before since my journey in #ALX_SE , and I have been using it recently.
Advantage:
- One the most important advantage is TIME!!!

[Ndandax @_ndandax]

your software and something goes of in production and you are not sure where to start because in fact you don't really know your codebase, Yes AI can debug but as a developer you need to have knowledge of what is going on!
-Well I don't know very much on the security concerns

[Ndandax @_ndandax]

@jbarbier @kalibetre I am glad to be in a beta cohort!
