They explore why coding is ultimately about clear specifications, testing, and evaluation, not just generating code and discuss whether AI will truly replace developers or simply change how software is built. Along the way, they compare AI-generated software to IKEA furniture versus custom craftsmanship, examine the future of junior engineers, and share their perspectives on quality, responsibility, and what it really means to ship software in an AI-driven world.&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; Takeaways: &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; How experienced engineers evaluate AI-generated code&nbsp; The critical role of testing, evaluation, and human oversight in AI-assisted development&nbsp; Why clear specifications are still the foundation of successful software projects.&nbsp; &nbsp; Who are they? &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; View Scott Hanselman on LinkedIn &nbsp;&nbsp; View Mark Russinovich on LinkedIn &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; Watch Scott and Mark Learn on YouTube &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Listen to other episodes at scottandmarklearn.to &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Discover and follow other Microsoft podcasts at microsoft.com/podcasts &nbsp; Produced by Hangar Studios Hosted on Acast.
