Josh agrees with Gartner's prediction that AI-generated code will dominate. He notes, "Developers need to focus on AI skill development." As seen in Amazon's Java upgrades, AI's role suggests a shift in developer roles towards code reviewing. Upskilling in AI will be crucial as AI optimizes code maintenance, reducing demand for traditional developer roles.

Josh states, “Deepfakes are notoriously hard to detect and will only become more realistic and accessible.” He emphasizes the need for standardized model regulations and non-politically biased AI laws focusing on companies and social media platforms. Josh also argues that parody using deepfakes should be clearly over-the-top to avoid confusion.

Josh explains, “AI detection tools struggle because AI can mimic human writing well. COPYLEAKS, the best tool, only has ~80% accuracy.” He suggests rethinking writing education to include AI as a tool, emphasizing skills like reading comprehension and source verification.
