About this episode

The episode discusses the implications of AI on engineering jobs with Hrishi Dixit, focusing on the challenges and skills needed in a regulated industry.

Developers, how confident are you in the future of your job? Today, we're catching up with Hrishi Dixit, cofounder and CTO of Autonomy Finance, about what actually happens when you hand the keys to AI in a regulated industry — why the first pass of AI-generated code is never shippable, how a commingled client data hallucination can end a company overnight, and why the engineers who survive the AI wave won't be the ones who write the most code, but the ones who know exactly when the machine is about to get someone killed. All of this right here, right now, on the Modern CTO Podcast! To learn more about Autonomy Finance, check out their website here.
