"Coding" was never the source of value, and people shouldn’t get overly attached to it. Problem solving is the core skill. The discipline and precision demanded by traditional programming will remain valuable transferable attributes, but they won’t be a barrier to entry. - John Carmack

This right here.

Problem is not coding. Anybody can learn that with a couple of well focused courses.

I'd love to see an AI find the cause of a catastrophic crash of a machine that isn't caused by a software bug.

Catching up on what Carmack's been up to for the last decade has revived the fan in me. I love that 2 years after leaving Oculus to focus on AGI, this is all the hype he's willing to put out there.
