A year ago, we barely had tab auto complete. Now by the end of 2025, you have pretty good agents that are junior engineer level. The pace is incredible.
“One thing, I mean, this is all public, which is if you think about how coding is developed.”
One thing, I mean, this is all public, which is if you think about how coding is developed. Right? Like, a year ago, 2094, we barely had tab auto complete. Right? You could tab auto complete some functions, and that was, like, pretty incredible. Then the twenty one five five came around, and you had coding. Like, you can chat with the agent, Vibe coding, you had clock code, WinSort of things like that. And now by the end of 2025, you have pretty good agents that are kind of junior interview level engineers.
Why this clip
Shows the exponential progression of AI coding capabilities with concrete timeline. The contrast between 'barely tab complete' to 'junior engineer level' in one year is striking and relatable to developers.
What they said next
Writing Python, I'm not sure it matters. Just like writing COBOL and Fortran doesn't really matter right now. Maybe English is the Python of the future.
