Embrace the uncertainty

Nobody knows what the future of software engineering looks like, and that's incredibly uncomfortable. But instead of waiting for someone to hand us the answer, I think the move is to embrace the uncertainty, because these moments of deep uncertainty have historically been moments of extraordinary opportunity.

The Future of AI Images

Advancements in AI image generation, particularly through Google's Nano Banana Pro, highlight the need for models to understand causality and physics.

Future breakthroughs may involve world models that comprehend physical laws, enhancing image realism.
