@sailfishcc1: This metaphor is truly insightful
Summary
A metaphorical discussion about AI not enabling everyone to build their own app, stressing that one would only pursue something out of genuine passion, not just because the technology is feasible.

This analogy really hits the mark.
Teacher Pan (@xiaopanlaoshi): Actually, AI won’t really make everyone build their own app…
Everyone can cook tomato scrambled eggs, but not everyone actually does it.
If you sell a high-quality, good-looking, and tasty version of tomato scrambled eggs, people will still order from you…
The most important thing is that you have to actually enjoy making tomato scrambled eggs… You have to enjoy it more than many other things before you’ll actually make it.
And once you make it well, selling it for money comes naturally.

The article explores how increasingly powerful AI models eliminate those whose skills can be encoded into prompts, emphasizing that the truly irreplaceable value lies in tacit knowledge, physical-world operations, and interpersonal trust. Through the example of a friend transitioning from a consultant to a hardware integrator, the author illustrates how proactively yielding to AI-replaceable tasks while deepening expertise in areas beyond AI's reach is key to surviving and thriving in the technological wave.
@sailfishcc1: I strongly agree. I think in the future, people with experience in design systems, infrastructure, evolving complex systems, and maintaining legacy code — those who can effectively leverage AI to handle these tasks — will be very scarce.
A developer argues that future AI-native teams will value people with experience in design systems, infrastructure, and maintaining complex codebases, who can leverage AI effectively.
@MaxForAI: I laughed when I saw this post claiming AI can't replace professionally trained people. A bunch of people are nitpicking over the fact that big influencer Kazike doesn't understand CDN details. Then they smugly say, "See? They still need us, the professionally trained ones." I don't get what they're so smug about… Hu Yanbin's Vibe coding app had some bugs recently, and a bunch of people were cheering about that too. Let me remind these friends: the reason "non-professionals" make many rookie mistakes now is essentially because AI isn't strong enough yet. Tomorrow, the day after, these bugs will become fewer and fewer. Clinging to "today's knowledge gap" as a moat is basically betting that AI won't improve. The real point here isn't whether "professionals have an advantage"—it's that for the first time, AI allows a person to cross into a completely unfamiliar field at low cost, to understand, build, and produce. This is a paradigm shift. So the question should be flipped: you people who are already experts in your own fields—why aren't you using AI or software engineering to conquer other domains, instead of sitting in your moat feeling superior by pointing out others' bugs? Don't resist evolution.
Discusses how AI development enables non-professionals to produce across fields, and that professionals should not cling to knowledge gaps but embrace AI tools.
