In a leaked recording, Amazon Web Services CEO Matt Garman told employees that software engineers may have to develop other skills when AI takes over most coding tasks. Garman shared his thoughts on the topic during an internal fireside chat in June, according to a recording of the meeting obtained by Business Insider. He noted, “It just means that each of us has to get more in tune with what our customers need and what the actual end thing is that we're going to try to go build, because that's going to be more and more of what the work is as opposed to sitting down and actually writing code.”
