Sorry to hear that you've been going through so much but glad to hear that you're gaining focus on your future. Stay strong! As for AI and development, everything I've seen so far leads me to think that AI has promise as a co-pilot developer assistant but I haven't yet seen anything to lead me to think that developers have much to worry about yet. I hope I'm right but I'll also continue to follow you to see what you learn along the way.

Stay strong! Supporting the channel and hoping things get better!

Stay strong Kilo! I've learned a lot from you. I also got laid off last month, struggling to find a new opportunity. I totally understand your situation. Hope all becomes better for you.

Man this is a courageous video to make. So much love and props to you. Congratulations on everything - even the hard ones - you’re leveling up way more than you can understand right now. Layoffs suck. I have every confidence YOU will come out stronger. Love the new direction you’re taking the channel. Gonna be selfish and spill my thoughts - I’m a fan of AI and it’s changed my life over the last 9 months - for me, it helped me change careers through LLM chat helping me know some questions to ask - domain-specific knowledge I didn’t know I didn’t know. If that makes sense. Then I used the one I used to help study topics, check code, and “jam” with. That’s a theme I stick to - we’re just vibing out (me + the LLM), you know? Code gen is also interesting. Art and other domains are super interesting. However I’ve found many want to raise pitchforks on these topics. I think once you have a dedicated base for this kind of thing, people know what they’re getting into. I’m pro-AI-art and think that it helps artists, so take my bias into consideration. I’m less interested in the “debate” topics (but acknowledge that I’ll still click and watch lol) and more about “Here’s something new that dropped, here’s how you can run it, etc”. If you’re into the academic papers those are cool too to summarize, but I’m more hands-on: gimme the code, let me run it, and help me with the workflows. One more thing: please take care of yourself. I subbed originally because I was interested in AWS and iOS development but I don’t care about that like I care about creators staying healthy and happy. This AI space is super fast moving and while timeliness is key on videos and topics, don’t churn your headspace if you can help it. All love.

Glad things are starting to look up for you! Take care of yourself ❤️ I’m excited for the new content

Man, you don't know how much inspiration your videos are to us bro. We are thrilled to see you making moves again bro‼Keep that fire blazing🔥🔥🔥

Things will get better. Stay strong. You're super talented and have helped out a lot of people. We all have our ups and downs but only the strong ones move forward. Rooting for you and excited to see what your future brings. And congrats on your newborn. My sister had twins a few months ago, similar situation they where pre and where in the hospital for about 3 months, now they are super healthy and growing quick :)

Love the new haircut! Divorce is tough, but you will get through it in time. Keep your spirits up!

I am working in applied AI research for over 6 years now and found your channel bc I wanted to add mobile dev to arsenal. I think there are unique opportunities combining the smartphone as a sensorbox/user interface and AI. Should be a fun journey 😊

Damn man. Props to you for staying strong through all this. And happy things are starting to look up a little bit ❤

I've been following you for at least 6 years. I'm doing a little consulting at the moment but I'm very interested in leveraging Ai for iOS mobile development. I know that developers aren't going away but Ai will be a necessary tool for productivity in tomorrows world.

Glad to see you're feeling better. I hope God gives you the strength to manage your situation. With that AI is definitely the future. I would like to see contents of how you can use AI within an iOS code.

I really love your videos and tutors about iOS. They’re one of the best on youtube. But, yeah, this AI stuff is coming. So, we should adapt to this reality. Waiting for your videos in new sphere.

Stay strong! Hope that everything goes well

Kilo Brother same thing happened to me and slowly things will pass but divorce do things that really damage our core part, For me it took more than 7 years to recover from it but I think you can heal from it in less time span because are very intelligent and expressive about your feelings. But I will not sugar coat or type some motivation, Divorce PTSD is real as sun and your loved ones who are concerned about you can really help you in healing and specially the presence of them. You are great in teaching and expressing complex things in to a easy narrative. Bye Brother

Pain is temporary my friend. Keep pushing forward!

Really Proud of you brother, keep hope and faith Alive 🙏❤️

Oh, man! I am so sorry to hear that. Here are my thoughts about AI. Before I get started, I just want to mention that junior roles are ALREADY mostly illuminated. I have worked with AI for mobile as an iOS developer. *NO, that thang did not code everything for me.* Instead, the mobile client was a consumer of AI technology. Things like a prediction of certain trends (can't really go deeper than that). *Basically, AI made the user experience A LOT better.* I don't see mobile devs being scarce. What's coming in the near future is spatial computing. We're about 5-10 years away from that. Also, did you know that ChatGPT got sued? Yeah it hallucinated and defamed a character of a radio host.

stand strong brother! i appreciate the realness of the video

Glad you’re doing better

First of all, I hope everything be ok with you and your family soon❤. Secondly I think there are some things that may happen sooner or later,in the near future the companies which has legacy codes, won’t need to hire anyone for debugging because generating a new code base would be less costly than debugging. I would like to focus on core ML because I think still front end needs AI as well. However what will happen would be the machines which building the machines. So the AI which can generates a lot of chat GPT would be the best

Sounds to me like your on thebright track doing the full on AI embracing thing. Theres an pld saying..."if you cant beat em...join em."

🤯🤯🤯Sad you lost your job //Hopefully you find something soon quickly //Nice to see your ai enthusiasm as well. BP just used Ai to cut 70% of coders, and now the remaining coders verify the ai generated code because it sometimes generates unsecure code.

life is a rollercoaster , word .

These problems are not forever, so I believe in you. Going back to artificial intelligence, it's a cool idea, I want to see how you move to it from iOS background , and how we can apply it to daily iOS developer, because all engineers will learn it whether they want to or not😅

Hey kilo, I have seen this title and after long I am at situation you're title ia, Somehow not due to AI, Just market is down , Everywhere. How about you these days bro? How's little one and you're up to?

I think I saw hugging face is hiring, but you probably know that. But that does seem to be a big hub for AI, and they have some kind of blog there, maybe make connections..

Thank you for sharing. You are fortunate to be a senior developer who might be a guy hired to use AI displacing junior developers. But how do you get to be a senior developer under that scenario?

Keep your head up bro

🤗

Get involved with compilers.

Discord link?

I use google bard. Over chatgpt.

as a backend developer I am scared of being laid off. god may help us
