Will AI Kill Coding?
What is the future of software engineering?
Some people claim that AI is already writing 90%+ of our code. Others tell us it will be writing 100% of it with six months.
They’re both wrong. But software engineering is changing. AI and AI-assisted coding is behind the change.
That means Coding Challenges has to change too.
I’d love your feedback on what you would like to see in this newsletter. Is it more coding challenges, more coding tutorials or more focus on how to change with the industry and leverage AI?
Hit reply, or comment on Substack and let me know. Thanks!
If you’re skeptical about AI and don’t think it can complete a specific coding task, I am on the hunt for challenges to put to AI. You can find full details and submit your challenge on the AI Coding Challenges GitHub repo.

I hope that coding challenges remains the primary content! I have 7 million other newsletters telling me how to use AI. I value this newsletter for helping me hone my own skills still, which I think are especially necessary to maintain as I work with AI.
I like what you are doing here. Honestly, I still think there is a place for the content and challenges you are putting out. It is good for someone who wants to get better at or start using AI dev tools by building things with them. It is also good for those who want to improve their coding skills the "old fashion" way. I think both skillsets are necessary, at least for now, so keep doing what your doing and people can build the skills they are looking to build.
