Kubernetes whizz says devs can redefine their roles and capitalize on coding ML rewards
Software industry veteran and developer advocate Kelsey Hightower, well known for his contributions to the Kubernetes community, has an interesting take on generative AI: he won't be paying too much attention to it for now, except insofar as how it will be instrumental in changing what it means to be a software engineer.
This, he said, would create a pipeline of athletes and coders to future-proof the industry – which needs to redefine what a dev is at the same time as it considers both AI risks and how to capitalize on its rewards. "But imagine if you had your time back. I think the new software developer would be doing way more of those activities. They would become students of software development. Most people don't study software development. They study the craft of how to write software. They don't study the art."
"What makes Kubernetes very interesting is if you look at what's inside of Kubernetes, it's very 'furniture': a bunch of VMs and the same loops we were using for 20 years."
