With Apple’s release of Xcode 26 and macOS 26 in beta, developers got a big surprise — full integration of AI and ChatGPT directly into Xcode. Some fear this means fewer opportunities for junior developers. I disagree. As an aerospace engineer turned Apple developer, I never followed the traditional path. I’m what you'd call a hacker— someone who figures things out, not someone who knows everything in advance. And that’s exactly the mindset that will thrive in this new AI-assisted world.
In this episode, I explore:
- Why thinking matters more than knowing
- How junior developers can succeed
- Why creativity, problem-solving, and persistence are your real career assets
Whether you’re a coder, creator, or curious mind, this is about how to thrive in the future of work.
