The Way We Use AI Will Completely Change in 2026 (Hot Takes)



The IDE is dying. So is tool calling. OpenAI won’t win. And you’ll be shipping code you’ve never read even as an experienced engineer.

The way we use AI for agents and writing code is going to look COMPLETELY different in 2026. In this video, I cover my predictions (some are definitely hot takes) and why they matter for you right now.
