day in the life of a software engineer | fear of A.I.

This YouTube vlog by Phil Choi combines a "day in the life" developer walkthrough with reflections on AI. Phil discusses using AI as a tool (mentions Copilot and concerns about environmental/energy costs), live-debugs a React/Firestore app (moving players between teams, JSX/objectEntries issues, backend/frontend hookup), and gives project updates (a soccer-management app, collaborators Gabe and Jocelyn, Charlie's chatbot). He also notes personal milestones: became a developer after age 30, has used Copilot since 2021, and started his YouTube channel about six months prior. The video closes with a holiday greeting.
