DOP 291: The Future of Software Development in an AI-Driven World


Listen Later

#291: As we approach the end of 2024, a recurring theme in the tech industry is the impact of AI on software jobs. While some fear mass job displacement, others see an opportunity for unprecedented innovation.

In some respects, it appears that the job market is experiencing shifts reminiscent of the Industrial Revolution. However, unlike the fear of robots taking over in sci-fi narratives like The Terminator, current concerns are rooted in AI automating roles traditionally held by humans.

In this episode, we talk with Derek Ferguson, Chief Software Officer for the Fitch Group, about how new technologies historically create demand for new skills and roles, suggesting that AI may similarly open doors rather than close them.
