    Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei: Jobs that are purely about writing code will be the first to be replaced by AI; humans should hold on to the 5% of judgment

    In an interview, Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei said bluntly that coding will be the first to be completely replaced by AI, but software engineering work such as architecture and requirements design will last longer. He proposed "5% + 95% = 20x productivity," meaning AI handles 95% of execution while humans hold on to the 5% that is judgment and taste. He also advised avoiding wrapper products, building deep vertical moats, and treating prompt engineering like practicing the piano.
