My bet: AI WILL make good software engineers MORE expensive.

Cheaper code. More startups. More demand for engineers when those startups scale.

Everyone's counting the jobs AI will kill.

Who's counting the companies it will create?

@markfenner it already started

@KyleDeWriter most of these companies will have a runway before they realise they don't have enough users

MAYBE the most underrated account on 𝕏

[Ryan @ryangrowthh]

Working on something very special. Might genuinely break the algo with this one.

No other creator has ever done this in the history of 𝕏, or even could.

Going to help a LOT of creators... more soon.

Lots of other team members that have contributed to this mission.

Maybe will bring some on for specific videos in the future!

Unpopular opinion but

AI only enhances skills you already master.

If you don't already know how to do the work well yourself, AI won't save you, it just makes average work faster.
