#152 - Will AI Replace Us Developers? No! But Using AI Tools Will Give You an Edge ...
from Pybites Podcast Hosted by Julian Sequeira & Bob Belderbos
And we're back, Julian and Bob this time! We're hearing some people being worried about AI and its impact on developer roles, even to the extent of being skeptical to move in or keep progressing into our field. Hence we thought it would be good timing to discuss the current state of AI tools, their strengths + weaknesses, and how to effectively use them. We don't think they will replace us developers because in this episode we come to the conclusion that so much in software development is (and will be) human. We hope that our perspective will better help you navigate and use these tools. We think we live in exciting times and by embracing AI tools you really can create an edge for yourself. We also have some exciting Pybites updates for you, books and more ... enjoy! And don't forget to join our community and join the discussion.
