Web News: Is IBM Winning the AI Race? A Bet on Entry-Level Developers

from HTML All The Things - Web Development, AI, and Developer Careers · host Matt Lawrence and Mike Karan

AI is changing everything - especially for junior developers. While many companies are cutting back on entry-level roles, IBM is doing the opposite. In this edition of the Web News, Matt and Mike explore why IBM is tripling its entry-level hiring in 2026, what that says about the future of software development, and whether this strategy gives them an edge in the AI race. Is this a smart long-term investment - or a risky bet in a world where AI can already write code? If you’re a junior developer (or thinking of becoming one), this might be one of the most important signals in the industry right now.
