The Aboard PodcastSara Chipps: How AI Changes CodingWhat should developers be doing right now to adapt to AI? On this week’s Reqless, Paul and Rich get an on-the-ground perspective from longtime software engineer Sara Chipps, who’s been going deep with AI-assisted coding tools in recent months. They discuss what AI means for the work of everyone from recent CS grads to senior engineering managers, before they shift topics to Sara’s true passion, using AI to better trade crypto, which leaves Rich uttering the phrase, “What’s the market cap of Fartboy?” 2025-03-0436 minThe Aboard PodcastSara Chipps: How AI Changes CodingWhat should developers be doing right now to adapt to AI?

I'm more mean in this case, conflict of like...2022-06-2336 min
