AI can debug. AI can generate tests. So what exactly are developers supposed to be doing now?\n\nIn Episode 14 of AI Thoughtmakers by GeekyAnts, we sit down with Anamika and Bharat for a candid, no-filter conversation about what's actually changing on the ground for software developers in the AI era — and why the software companies that will win aren't the ones with the most AI tools, but the ones who know how to use them right.\n\nFrom the Claude vs ChatGPT debate to what happens when AI goes down for a day, this episode gets into the real, unfiltered developer experience of working alongside AI in 2026.\n\nKey topics covered:\n• Are companies hiring developers or problem solvers — and what's the difference?\n• Why Claude is becoming the go-to tool for architecture and coding over other AI platforms\n• The risk of copying AI-generated code without understanding it\n• How junior developers can grow in an AI-native development environment\n• Why mentorship matters more when AI tools become part of daily work\n• What happens to developers when AI tools go down for a day\n• The growing dependency on AI — and whether that's a problem\n• Why knowing your own codebase is still the most important skill a developer can have\n• What software engineering will look like in 2030\n• One thing every engineer should stop doing today — and one thing they should start\n\nIf you're a developer navigating the AI era, a tech lead mentoring the next generation, or a founder wondering what kind of talent you actually need — this conversation will give you a lot to think about.\n\nSubscribe for more conversations on AI, software engineering, product development, developer productivity, AI-native development, and the future of software.\n\nConnect with Anamika: LinkedIn -   / anamika-228824208   \n\nConnect with Bharat: LinkedIn -   / bharat-dhiman-4855711a1   \n\nConnect with Prem: LinkedIn -   / premgoswami   ","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/9ucptEYd5kVPtNA_zR1pGGq70YIZjxQEgWQXPqsHHDg/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS8yNGQz/ZmI1YWRiYWMxMTM3/YmQyNDA4YTQ2ZTY4/N2RjNi5wbmc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
