Transcript excerpt from a YouTube video discussing how AI will create new jobs, particularly expanding software development by enabling non-traditional programmers (e.g., people using AI tools to build apps without CS backgrounds). The speaker argues AI will increase, not decrease, programming roles by lowering barriers and enabling domain experts to build software.
What sort of new jobs do you think will be created as a result of AI? I have a I think, unfortunately, is a contrarian opinion about software development. I think people sometimes think that all of this leverage that programmers are getting with their software development tools powered by AI means that there's going to be fewer programming jobs. I think there are actually going to be more programming jobs. Yeah. I look at that app that my daughter did, like, you know, the AI tools basically turned her into a programmer. And, like, she doesn't want to be a computer scientist and she doesn't have time to, like, make herself a good programmer or she wants to be a biologist. And so, like, I think we're going to have like a ton of people who are effectively doing software development in places where software development couldn't happen before at all because there just aren't enough developers in the world.
