A user has set up an automated tweet to check back in six months, aiming to hold Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei to his bold prediction.
Amodei recently stated that AI models would be able to perform 'most, maybe all' of what software engineers do end-to-end within 6 to 12 months, effectively turning engineers into editors. The automated check-in serves as a public tracker for this aggressive timeline.
