About this episode

The episode explores the integration of AI into QGIS and its implications for GIS skills and career opportunities.

I've been playing around with a lot of large language models lately, and it is absolutely fascinating to watch them work. But what happens when you bring that directly into QGIS? Right now, AI in the geospatial industry is a lot like a fast, enthusiastic new intern, incredibly helpful, and sometimes completely wrong, but improving at a rate that no human can compete with. As we hand more of our geoprocessing tasks over to these algorithms, and computing becomes more pervasive, are our own GIS skills becoming obsolete? Or are we just unlocking radically different opportunities to rethink our careers?
