AI.engineer's Thariq: 2026 was software's industrial revolution, 2027 should be its Renaissance
TheTuringPost · x · 2026-11-13
In his AI.engineer Code Summit closing talk, Thariq (trq212) argued 2026 was the industrial revolution of software — coding agents made software dramatically cheaper to build — but the real frontier ahead is making models work the way we want: new human-centered programming languages, databases, OS interactions and interfaces, reviving decades of HCI research. He demos a game where AI runs the engine while he directs every creative decision in a language he designed. The Renaissance won't happen automatically; we have to build it. AI.engineer's YouTube also hit 1,000,000 subscribers.
