State of the Union

CHAPTER

Do You Believe That Donald Trump's Shadow Is on the Ballot?

Democratic groups spent millions of dollars boosting Don Bullock in the Republican primary because they thought he'd be easier to beat in the general election. Can you concede that it was a mistake? I'm not going to, at one moment, concede this race because Maggie has been ahead every step of the way. There are 50% of Americans have election deniers on the ballot. Democracy is on the ballot and it is time to vote for democracy.

So I guess the lesson to take from that is there's something that looks amazing on paper and then nobody uses it. It doesn't actually have the impact that you think it might have. I saw that you really went through a lot of different features and a lot of ideas to arrive at Coursera, the final kind of powerful thing that showed the world that MOOCs can educate millions.

And I think with the whole machine learning movement as well, I think it didn't come out of nowhere. Instead, what happened was as more people learn about machine learning, they will tell their friends and their friends will see how the people to their work and in the community kept on growing. And I think it was still growing. I don't know in the future what percentage of our developers will be AI developers. I could easily see it being more for 50%, right? Because so many AI developers broadly construed, not just people doing the machine learning modeling, but the people doing the infrastructure, data pipelines, all the software surrounding the core machine learning model. Maybe it's even bigger. I feel like today, almost every software engineer has some understanding of the cloud. Not all. Maybe this is my microcontroller developer that doesn't need to do the cloud. But I feel like the vast majority of software engineers today are sort of having the patience to cloud. I think in the future, maybe we're approaching nearly 100% of all developers being in some way an AI developer or at least having an appreciation of machine learning.
