Software development is in the middle of a major shift. GenAI is no longer just a tool, it’s becoming a true partner in the development process. In this episode, I talk with Nate Jones, better known as the “AI Guy” on TikTok, about what coding will look like in 2030 and beyond.
We dig into today’s breakthroughs: from Google’s AI-driven coding to the rise of autonomous agents in business, and the emerging idea of “Bring Your Own Agent to Work.” We also explore why documentation must go “LLM-first,” why user interfaces aren’t disappearing but evolving, and why developers will remain essential - even in a world of automation.
Along the way, we spotlight real-world examples like Perplexity’s new AI browser, Lindy.ai’s agent platform, and agent-powered use cases at Stripe and Uber. And we tackle the tough questions too, including how regulations like GDPR will need to adapt.
The takeaway: AI isn’t just about productivity. It’s reshaping entire roles. In the future, every job will be an AI-first job. To thrive in 2030, you’ll need not only to master AI but also to bring the uniquely human drive to solve problems and create value.
If you want a glimpse into how software development and corporate IT will change - and which skills will matter most - this episode is for you.
