1. 0:00Is this written in Python?
2. 0:01>> No, it's written in Claude.
3. 0:02>> That's not a programming language.
4. 0:04>> on. Programming languages don't matter
5. 0:05anymore. AI writes all my code.
6. 0:06>> Then why is our app crashing?
7. 0:08>> What? Claude, why is my app crashing?
8. 0:10>> Here, look. You were trying to lowercase
9. 0:11user's email, but the user didn't have
10. 0:13an email.
11. 0:13>> And that crashed the app?
12. 0:14>> Well, if you were using Kotlin, the
13. 0:15compiler would have caught it early so
14. 0:16you could fix it.
15. 0:17>> so my AI could fix it? Yeah, sure.
16. 0:19>> I mean, my code reviewer didn't catch it
17. 0:21either.
18. 0:21>> Well, there's only one code reviewer
19. 0:22that never makes mistakes.
20. 0:23>> Gerard?
21. 0:24>> No, the compiler.
22. 0:25>> Wow, that's deep.
23. 0:26>> even better than having your compiler
24. 0:27review your code is not writing
25. 0:29unnecessary code in the first place.
26. 0:31>> necessary.
27. 0:31>> See, when I write my back end in Kotlin,
28. 0:33I can use existing Java libraries, so I
29. 0:35don't need to write code a function that
30. 0:37counts the number of letters in a
31. 0:38string.
32. 0:38>> That was only one time, but if you were
33. 0:40using Kotlin, it would have been zero
34. 0:41times.
