I took this week to learn about system design and decided to touch grass and avoid coding for a while.During that period I was able to get two popular titles Designing for Data intensive application and system design interview and they were good so gave me an interest to research on how some of the major systems were able to handle especially scalability and Whatsapp was my first system to investigate.the youtube link
I might tell you I was impressed on how there servers were able to handle the scalability of 2.8 million users in one server which is a huge step especially now in the age where coding is more of coding for use of less resources cause of the AI era making hardware expensive.
With such a 30 team you can't convince me AI will be able to outshine such minds and those will be like a child play and decided to make this tweet.
Yesterday it was an innocent tweet with 148 view by the time I woke up was 6,000 views with different perspective some supporting the claim that AI will not be replacing software developers anytime soon and the AI enthusiast bashing me like always since I was able to trigger them but my argument is just simple until AI is able to solve new problems that is when we need to be scared cause imagine AI in the time of Wright brothers and said they wanted to create a plane it would have told them it is impossible or even Eisenstein look at what I am saying
Is AI something we should look out for yes but is it that how LLMS keep pushing it not really and we are not to a point where we need to be scared as developer and AI will not replace the skill gap and every time you have an issue before running to your favorite AI model research and check on working solution and think.
