AI and software jobs
There's this oft-repeated theme on what happens when knowledge work becomes AI-first. Will it result in fewer tech jobs? Or will the reverse happen? If you look at history, anytime we've seen a transformational technology that results in a step-change exponential gain, the demand for that skill only goes up (see Jevons paradox).
We'll build software faster, but we'll also build net new software we've never built before. Over the next few years, we'll build software we haven't even dreamt of. Uber, Zomato, etc. were not possible prior to the mobile revolution. They represent entirely new categories of software that the mobile wave made possible.
Not only will we build net new software, we'll also build software that is personalized to each individual. Software that adapts to how you think and work. The addressable market for software will only increase as a consequence. Doing more with less is exciting, but I'm more excited about the things we could not do before that are now/will be possible with AI. The future is bright and exciting!
