I have been saying this a lot recently. Systems thinking and design/architectural thinking, vision, matter a lot now, but they are not easy things to learn. Not everyone can do it. Only People with "Taste" architect a system that scales, looks elegant, and solves a real human problem.

last one, the one i love 😈 > be a customer > believe all four above at once > "AI will save you money" > "AI will save you time" > open the monthly bill > it saved neither > efficiency achieved > theirs, not yours

> be Jensen Huang > wear the jacket > "AI is the future" > "everyone must use AI" > "this will bring trillions in economic impact" > sell GPUs > "the more you buy, the more you save" > nobody's saving except him

> be Demis > win Nobel Prize > stay quiet while others panic-tweet > "we're focused on the science" > let the other three fight on the timeline > say that layoffs because of AI are lack of imagination https://www.wired.com/story/demis-hassabis-ai-layoffs-deepmind-google-io/

> be Sam Altman > build chatgpt > say "we may have just built a digital god" > tweet AI might crash the economy > say "I'm delighted to be wrong about this"

> be Dario > publish 14000 word essay > scare everyone about superintelligence > "we might lose control" > "this could go very badly" > "50% of entry-level jobs gone" > "AI will write 100% all the code by end 2025" > also raise $$$ right after > do the exact same thing next year > and the year after > now claim "automation may actually expand the work people do"

> be Microsoft and block Claude Code for own engineers because it is expensive > be Uber and spend yearly budget in 4 months with low ROI > be Starbucks and find out that Al was miscounting inventory let's see what they are going to do after

what's next: > be the same company > panic > rehire the people you fired > people now do the work AI couldn't > AI bill still there > call it a "strategic realignment" later > stock goes up anyway

> be a big tech company > lay off employees to save money using Al > give Claude Code to engineers to make them "efficient" > tell everyone to use more tokens > engineers start using Al > literally for everything > code generation > debugging > automation > documentation > entire workflows > the monthly bill starts to look like a military budget > discover that thousands of employees using Al > all at the same time costs a fortune > panic

> use your 9 to 5 > to fund your 5 to 9 > to get out of your 9 to 5

Yandex ML School Uzbekistan Celebrates Its First Graduates And opening NEW APPLICATIONS! The graduation ceremony for Yandex Uzbekistan’s AI program took place at their brand-new Tashkent office, with 19 students successfully completing the first cohort. For a whole year, students got to learn from Yandex experts and university profs, mastering: • Machine Learning & Deep Learning • NLP & Computer Vision • LLMs & AI Models ⚡️ Apply for the Next Cohort! Applications for the next batch are already open. • Language: English • Deadline: September 10th Note: it's pretty competitive, they had over 3,000 students apply last year! You definitely don't want to miss this awesome opportunity. Sponsored content @rustamzokirov

I've returned from the US, here are the highlights: • I met Sundar Pichai, our CEO, and had a small talk together 😎 • Hosted my uzb friend studying at Harvard • Met with Nodir aka, he is working at Anthropic, we had a nice talk about the future (we like talking about this) • And visited Anthropic HQ • Also working on a video from Harvard and MIT unis

New Announcements at Google I/0 I will share what updates we have for engineers. • Antigravity 2.0 = coding IDE (antigravity.google) • Antigravity CLI = same as claude code cli (gemini CLI will be deprecated) • Antigravity SDK = for building custom agents • new Gemini 3.5 model, comparable to Opus 4.7 • Google AI Ultra plan now 100$ (previously 200$ mo), besides 20x AI usage, you get 20TB of storage, etc What I can say is this: I have been using an internal version of Antigravity 2.0, and it is working very well. It is fast and reliable, and the agent produces working solutions similar to Claude Code. For the tasks I have been working on, it has been performing perfectly. I have written 0 lines of code on my own in the last month, instead, I have been reviewing plans and verifying that things work. And Google is unifying all coding tools onto Antigravity. There will be only Antigravity from now on. Antigravity IDE, CLI, SDK

But at the same time... Instead of arguing when AI will replace humans and take over our jobs. Let's go, use AI and build things to solve problems we have right now.

My original question was: Do we really need juniors, who are/will be the middles, and who are/will be the seniors? And how will old companies transform? How will new teams start? With AI tools, the roles in engineering are changing one ladder up. Just redefining now. Juniors used to write code. Now AI does that. But nobody knows yet how juniors develop judgment without doing the work themselves. What juniors are doing right now, I think, evaluating code. Middles used to bridge execution. AI does that now too. I think, we will need them if they become technical product owners: directing AI, telling context to AI, tradeoffs, debugging what AI gets wrong. I mean they bridge business logic with execution. But seniors become more valuable. Knowing when AI is wrong, what not to build, which decision matters long-term — that's experience. You can't generate it. Old companies will be slow to change. New companies won't hire the traditional way. They'll launch lean — a few experts, AI doing the execution, no pyramid. The unsolved question: if juniors never do the work, how do they become seniors? How the growth will look like? I don't know. But recently Amazon said they will hire 11K interns. Companies need young people to adapt the business. Young people have fresh ideas, companies need them.
