Software development is not dead at all, and developing software is still a big moat.
I've had an SEO and a dev & design agency for many years.
Last week I built a $20,000 project for a customer.
This month, I put into production a project I built last month.
Its an app that runs into kiosk mode into some special android tablets in taxis, running ads for partner companies, having a way to tip the taxi driver and a few extra cool things + admin + backend side.
I developed it using AI, didnt even wrote a single line of code but it was 1 month of constant work
The customer came to me with a vibecoded version which was absolutely horrendous.
This customer came to my agency because:
- I have done this before
- I know what I am doing
- he knows I can deliver a good design and product
- he needs extra assurance for the software
- he needs the 12 months of free support included
- he needs professional design
He paid $20k without even blinking while my only cost was $200 for claude code, and of course knowledge of proper software development.
Customers not only don't want to vibe code their software, but also are not good at this.
That's why software developers using AI will always win.
Do not listen for indie hackers on twitter that tell you software is dead just to get millions of views.
Btw if it wasn't for AI, it would have taken me at least 3 months to complete this, and the cost would have been 2-3x more
So far, I have seen similar posts from China, Russia, Germany, South Korea, and Japan, where recent college graduates or young people are finding it difficult to find jobs. So, in which countries are young people now finding it relatively easy to find suitable jobs? 到目前为止,我已经看到了类似的帖子,中国,俄罗斯,德国,韩国,日本都出现了刚毕业的大学生或者年轻人很难找工作,那么现在还有哪些国家的年轻人稍微容易找到适合的工作?
