Have never seen an interview or piece of writing where he comes off sounding like he knows what he's doing.

If he's right they'll be out of job regardless whether it's because of Claude or another AI.

ostrich, meet sand. I mean, have you tried CC? It's fun to build stuff with it. I think developers that don't use it (or something like it) will be out of a job, yes (unless they're very niche).

That's like asking why people who shovel shit all day started using backhoes to do their shit shoveling

Because whether I use it or not doesn’t affect the fact that it’s going to take my job. It’s still the easiest way to get things done today.

I am a software developer that believes LLMs will ruin the market for us in terms of destroying a lot (not all, but more than enough to be devestating) jobs and depressing wages, but I still have no real option but to use them to remain relevant for now.

That said, I dont have a horse in the race and have used all the available options and find it very easy to switch among them, so I'm not a specific booster of Claude Code or any other option.

Like Jensen Huang said the job of an engineer is to solve problems not writing code. The code is a means to an end. This is certainly true for me as an engineer and why I'm not worried about AI.

Because fear sells easily to those who do not know the future.

Dario constantly fearmongers to them and 98% of software developers all fall for it, and he needs to sell you access to his product.

The future is local LLMs and Dario knows this is their main threat. Just as Cursor, they don't want to pay for Claude anymore and are going with local models.

As long as it means Sam doesn't get another dollar from me. What's the flavor?

What are you actually claiming? Your take on their looks is irrelevant, and I don't know if you're hinting at anything specific when you say "People don't know who Dario is yet".

Brains fried post late-00s to 10s endless ZIRP waterfall helping them fail up. Not used to reality where everything they touch does not turn to gold.
