AI Revolution in Tech: Ghost Engineers, Quantum Storage, and the Future of PCs
In this week's episode, hosted by Jim Love, we discuss the looming impact of AI on the software development industry, particularly its effect on so-called 'ghost engineers'—underperforming developers. Advanced AI tools are challenging inefficiency and increasing productivity. The episode also highlights the groundbreaking achievement by Chinese scientists in data storage density using diamonds, and explores the slow adoption of AI PCs in the market, influenced by high costs and undetermined clear use cases. Furthermore, it touches on the rise of valuation in Elon Musk's XAI, contributing to the appreciation of X/Twitter's worth.
