Welcome to today’s episode! Let’s talk about a topic that’s sparking a lot of debate—AI in programming. Some tech leaders push hard for adopting large language models, but is that really the right move? Many skeptics see AI as just another fad, like NFTs. But here’s the thing: for serious developers, AI is a game-changer.

I’ve been coding since the 90s—C, Ruby, Python, Rust—you name it. Today’s AI tools aren’t just chatbots; they’re agents that can browse your code, run tests, interact with Git, and even manage complex builds. They’re not magic, but they’re surprisingly simple and incredibly effective at handling the boring, tedious parts of coding.

Think about all the stuff you’ve procrastinated on—starting a new language, fixing dependencies. An AI can handle that for you, getting you to that sweet spot of productivity faster. Sure, some tasks are complex and tricky, but AI helps you avoid the grind and focus on real innovation.

So, if you’re serious about coding, AI isn’t just a fad—it’s your new best tool. Thanks for listening!
