I am retired now from an IT career, but I still dabble in websites, programming, databases, and anything Tech. I can relate to this video. I believe that there is a fundamental shift in how programming is done. I appreciate the speed in which AI can develop a programming project, but also understand the problems and consequences of this. I myself have gone down rabbit holes and spent hours fixing something that AI recommended. AI is not trained on everything and can leave out important details. The key to making it work is to concentrate on developing and supplying specifications to AI so it knows about all the nuances of the project you are developing. I believe that there is a fundamental shift in how AI is used in an IT environment. The video is spot on describing the future of IT development.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"youtube-player\" width=\"840\" height=\"473\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/h0hdaHPKDdI?version=3&#038;rel=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;showinfo=1&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;fs=1&#038;hl=en-US&#038;autohide=2&#038;wmode=transparent\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" style=\"border:0;\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-presentation allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox\"><\/iframe><\/span>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I find AI interesting.
