Okay.
Today I'm talking with Robert Martin who needs no introduction.
So let's begin with talking about the future of programming.
Will GPT-25 be able to automate programming?
Will I not have a job in 25 years?
What is GPT-25?
What is that?
GPT-3 is the program that OpenAI just released and it seems to be able to do some basic,
make some basic methods like making a palindrome
because they just did deep learning over a bunch of GitHub repositories.
So is the future of AI basically going to be able to automate programming?
No.
Pretty straightforward answer.
There's a fundamental reason behind this.
In order to finally replicate programming, if you wanted a machine that could program like a human,
that machine would have to have human sentience.
And we are very, very far away from that kind of a machine.
Why would we need human sentience?
because someone has to specify the way the program is going to work.
And that specification is in fact the program.
