I went from "wow, okay" to "wait wtf?" when he revealed I've been watching AI Varun for months now.

[anujchhikara-zymx]

My take on the coding is at the end of the day only output matters so use all the assistants and just build faster and ship faster. We moved from assembly to c to python to English

[hindiaccount]

Honestly, Varun your video is so much better than the thousands of self-help videos who just feed you on how to live, i am amazed on the experimentation process. At the end of the day thats how humanity has evolved, THROUGH grit and painstaking effort of running thousands of experiments.

trial and error fuck yeaah

1. independent thinking {do your own experiment and figure it out]
2. managerial experiments [ you are also a sales guy, get result for company]

3. understand and do what costumer want, not what you feel

"Charismatic " Teachers are much better than "Skilled" teachers, in teaching students.
The Best example is, the Youtubers who are are teaching content in a more interesting ways are Better at capturing students attention than Skilled Professors from Colleges, great example is comparing the views from IIT Professors from NPTEL, eventhough their Content is much more important.
- Distribution will overtake Skill.

He is sharing insights that most people in regular jobs aren't aware of. Those who grasp these concepts usually work directly with CEOs, CTOs or Product owners - helping not only with customer acquisition and sales from a technical perspective but also with management tasks like improving UX, leveraging time, outsourcing routine tasks, streamlining workflows, and achieving rapid market validation. Crucially, they focus on research and providing solid proof to support their strategies—basically, he is revealing my secret.

it is from GOD that i clicked on this video, and watched the whole video, i don't know how the career will be after AI but my mindset is little changed after this 23 minutes...thank you

[vidhidoshi]

no ones gonna talk about the absolute clean and creative editing here

[rusbunnin]

Really great content, Varun. I agree that work of the future will be more result centric.
Arguing over DSA may sound ABSURD, but... they are just beginners who are trying to get into tech to earn a living (still on the lower part of Maslow's pyramid) . They have to keep up with the ABSURD demands of those organizations who are hiring - DSA

[Sudharshan-jp]

Every time! when watch his content i get confused about my life. i don't know WHY?

[atharvaswami]

And the good news is the infrastructure isn't there yet to replace all jobs. you still have lot of time to experiment.

[mahendarpatel]

Thanks for your efforts for creating this content.
I am software developer here are my takes on the video:
->AI is far better then me when it comes to coding and will be capable to replace me in few years.
->Need to focus on building products most of the low level things will be taken care by AI.
->Focus more on time management so that i can benifit most out of AI.
->Keep fundamentals strong.
->Improve analytical skills.
->Improve structured way of thinking.
->Dont overestimate the deadline to build something always keep tight deadline as most of the work can be done with the help of AI.
->Always have open mind and keep exploring.

you know varun, i’m really grateful you take it on you to bring us the truth irrespective of the hate you get for it. it’s really brave and i really respect you for it. now i’m way more confused for sure, but i know this confusion is good. thank you. keep doing what you’re doing.

[mr.prince]

It's true that nobody sees how you build the product, whether you hard-coded it or used any kind of GPT or AI tools; they only care about the output, unless you're learning from scratch.

As a Software Engineer, I no longer write code myself. Instead, I think about the steps needed to solve a problem and provide those steps to AI to write the code or solve the problem for me.

Overall value of everything is going to 0.
Humanity started from 0, going towards 0.
Om Namah Shivay 😂

[amlankashyap]

Varun, you are a way ahead of other content creators. Please continue this legacy and provide us with more such insightful content.

[hanzo]

from the "moment i got sense of this world" to "this point in time", i am believing these concepts but if i try to make a move on it. it's just make me to think something like is it ur purpose in life.
but in the end what ever i do i want to make/do something ' good '.

[ketansingh]

Bro you're cooking🔥
Here's what blew my mind
1. A lot of your Instagram videos are AI generated. (and they look so real)
2. Your predictions are almost always data backed and they end up being true
3. You're an experimenter
4. Content aka distribution is gonna be more and more valuable
5. SAAS is probably going to keep losing value because people are gonna make custom software with a prompt

[Vageshch]

I think i am totally screwed now 😭 choosing a degree that totally depends on writing code and displaying the output and the college's don't understand and don't give us much time to experiment new things with all the exams, assignment and records.I don't understand what am i going to do with my future
