You just spoke my mind. I keep telling people to not be specialist but more of a generalist at what they're doing. Amazing video 👏
Wow! Nice to see you in this vid!
@@gratefulpixels928 haha thank you 😎👍
Can you explain a bit, I am kind of interesting understanding this
I don't think that's what Varun was trying to say.
I mean every industry needs specialists, but the thing is specialists should not shy away to try out new things.
i watch only few videos to the entirety this video is one of them really engaging and the last part was very wholesome, thanks for making such videos , Blessed : ).
its a blessing to have varun around
Love the writing and clarity of thoughts...interesting times 🤞
your clarity of thoughts , observing things in a whole another level
The outro was really amazingly written ❤
i dont know why but each one of your points feels like youre pulling them straight out of my head, great work!
Varun ended with some great reminders. Keep posting such videos Sir.
Thank you so much bro , the last 5 minutes on the content is thought provoking , mind blowing and perspective shifting amazing👏
great lines in the end! thanks Varun. I felt hope :)
Quality content as always
Absolutely enjoyed this video Varun and loved the insights
iVarun just discovered your channel. Very interesting thoughts and I love the spiritual aspect of what you said in the last third.
good video, last 2 minutes were real hope-providers, keep doing what you are ❤
Thank you Varun Sir
I think this video was the need of the hour especially last few minutes
Wonderful Insights🔥Conclusion is pure CINEMA👏
Man, The last two minutes of monologue was fire 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Thought provoking, Mind Expanding and Perspective shifting content brother❤❤
vocabulary expanding comment
Hello Varun your content is really great, eye-opening to be precise. Please carry on with this noble work.We are eagerly looking forward to your upcoming videos.
This is the best informative video, definitely gonna be impacting my life decisions.
Thank you..!
I was waiting for this video
If you are someone in first year of college pls try switching to Computer Engineering, Electrical, Robotics or other branches. CS is close to over, everyone can do and most entry level CS future jobs doesnt require unique skill or engineering degree, and this will only go down in future due to basic roles like prompt engineering. Stop promoting CS so much, this whole market is a result of overhype and false narratives.
Bro can you tell your background, like what are you* studying or pursuing
Tells the guy who is still unemployed, shut the fuck up brother , stop being philosopher while you're in college. The way you wrote this paragraph i 200% can say you don't actually know what is computer science and another important thing is you don't need a college to learn all these. For anyone who's seeing this message do whatever the fuck you want in life don't listen to anyone people like these love to predict things by watching someone else like gyaani's. It can just affect you mentally. Try everything find something you love and progress
Bro CS is not only about programming or software development there are many other fields to CS also Software Development is just a part of application of CS
you have never done an actual software engineering job i guess
He's right! It doesn't even matter, CS is done in India in my opinion, I mean where do you see yourself in the future, with the curriculum we have? AI is well Developed, People are working so hard to achieve that next level AGI, Quantum Computing is Developing, And you, Still in the first year of Engineering learning, Trying to understand things with C, C++, Java,
I mean, Seriously?
Do you think you guys gonna survive this sh*t ? Initially it's you vs the world with Highly Intelligent people in the world and now it's you vs the Most powerful trained AI Model against you,
Guess what your chances of winning is .0001%.
Either you have to adapt or Die.
Just look around, Telsa, Neuralink, Apple, Google, They've been building cutting edge technology and will continue to do so because they're never short of funds and talents.
Just ask yourself. It's your Life.
😂 Varun understands his audience that they don't want to hear the truth so he changed his content strategy from telling the truth and making them feel uncomfortable to making them comfortable by telling what they want to hear😂
This is so true😂
Interesting. Let me tell you something , my brother used to photoshop , now I talked to him about AI and he said it was the best thing because he wouldn't need to edit 1-2 hours , he didn't need photoshop , anybody could do it but that means that doing degree in photoshop didn't mean anything that much and anyone could do it.
So yeah.
I do believe pessimism sells more but honestly , you do have to question if you're on the wrong side of shit.
What goes up eventually comes down, just don't get attached to anything. Always keep learning and adapt to the changing world.
Good video. Well researched
This is a really insightful video. 👍
The outro was infinite times true..
Favourite creator :)
Seriously, i don't know how you are making this such a beautiful Content.
Great deep analysis bro👍
Bro your background is amazing. I know its also Ai generated but your editing team is really great.
Always high quality content ❤
Good to see you varun
What a beautiful video ❤️
Good, Thought Provoking video Varun.
Amazing video.... loved the content .....
So insightful
For those people still defending CS, check who is building Devin if someone as smart as him is trying to solve programming you all don’t stand a chance.
Waited for your video Varun bro❤❤
Great Video brother. One suggestion: Please increase the volume of the video from your end.
Good insights and advices 😊✨.....
how an he be sooo genuine.....great work dude..!!
I dont know what to make of your conclusions, but well-put video and good articulation
Varun, you're doing an amazing job! It's rare to find content like yours, and only a few creators can produce such high-quality work. Keep it up! To be honest, I haven't found any content like yours.
he's a real engineer after all the real geek i would say
ua-cam.com/video/m8VSYcLqaLQ/v-deo.htmlsi=QK64ffTsmrqZABQD
what you said is falling short on words but the actual thing. I mean someone who has been there for a long time and have seen 5-10 years of change happening you made complete sense of what you just said
Well said bro 👏👏
love you dude
Varun, Keep sharing your wild thoughts and fascinating facts with us. There are many creators in this space but you stand out with your extraordinary work. Keep creating such engaging content. It greatly accelerates the learning curve for all of us.
Being a person from a core biology background I find your content creative and informative to people like us who have been long separated from the AI or technology related contents. I hope in future if we could replicate the lab experiment experience of working in for e.g biotechnology lab and the results on virtual basis by using some AI tools somehow. Or one person can design experiments based on experience and some other person doing the same experiment realistically and then troubleshooting and discussion with AI based theoretically sound mentor. I think we could save failure rates and the time taken on all these wet lab experiments. :)
Best insights on the AI revolution.😊
Amazing video Varun
Wow, Varun is now also my life philosophy guru. Great video ❤
Big fan for your content.
Now that is something called ' Eye Opening ' thoughts given words. Sometimes I do this and that explore this tool than another one and at the end of the day feeling ususally comes you are wandering off , do something very specific so that you can say this is what you specialises and other tasks are just timepass.
Really now the feeling is shifting and inherent Explorer is taking over.
Damn. Your conclusion gave me chills nd goosebumps 🔥
GOOD WORK ON BICEPS GREAT PUMP
You're awesome Varun
great one
Great Video. I Gain SO much from this Video.Thankyou
Nice explain, seriously nice explain, I also agree AGI or singularity in a corner..
software is getting harder by the day and manufacturing is not very easy for normal people, what should we do
waiting for your views on it , and please tell me, i am in great confusion... as a Software engineer i got amazed with this AI stuff i want to learn how generate ai works and how images are generated , how can i make my intrest possible as a software engineer , is this good to switch between field ..?
i just want to ask one question please answer honestly
you have a younger brother like guy who will be joining engineering college this year he is from a lower middle class family did okish in jee can get lower branches in NITs like production and civil and can get any brach in other private colleges(except VIT and MIT cuz high fees) he likes building stuff want to be like you and find meaning by building shit and gaining as much exp as possible what will you suggest him for college what colleges and branch should he take and what should he focus on after joining it
People across India are waiting for your insights on this . Finally got an interesting perspective on AI 👏👏👏
Last part of video is much beautiful 😊
This AI revolution is so fast and we can't predict anytime even about the next year, because at the end of 2022 and beginning of 2023 everyone thought that text to image models need some more years to come and text to videos model could take 2-3 years, but we all know how much time it took, same as this everyone thought AI couldn't take creative jobs but the first job acquired by AI were of creative jobs. Actually as this we couldn't able to predict future, the rate of growth of AI is like a blast, So i feel AI is disrupting all the other fields and we must leave it or become the top 1% in these field, AI will not take 100% for jobs but companies will only hire a single person who can use AI and optimistically make the workdone just the no.of employees for that specific work will reduce from 100 to just 5 or even 1 or 2.
I feel AI will just help us to upgrade to high level, AI can do all the technical jobs that humans are capable of because AI have been trained on the data that's already in work, so it's time to upgrade to a new technology like spatial computing, VR, Blockchain tech, quantum tech and computing.
Humans are made to be creative and evolve, we must evolve from web or app development to new techs that still AI don't know to develop.
Varun did u notice ,You are talking spiritual techTalks
, and your words liberating me from my bondage.
Truly, I'm over obsessed with my career and having no result it gives me depression.
Very toxic life if you can't think anything out of career.
Dear Varun,
I agree with the view on the AI modification, but I believe to cover the basic or other things, to go ahead & start experimenting at your level.
Yes, its becomes truly great once all is settled.
This man has tons of knowledge
Hev Varun, nice video
Just a quick question, like you talked about post agi scenario where you said "it'll outsource everyone" then in this case a what about those people who have created a good amount of wealth already? Like the inequality is still there ?
Just curious about this so asked hopefully you'll answer this and it'd be more helpful if you create a video around that it'll give us a broader perspective
I was waiting for this ever since you wrote Devinder 😂
great video
Editor forgot to stabilize or maximize volume I feel, although using an equaliser app will make up.
I think the concentration was more over thumbnails
hey what's the brand of that T-shirt? It looks so good. (so out of context IK).
As a software engineer, what should be our next steps in quality writing, can you guide us with steps to be taken to achieve the same
Varun, great insight brother. I wish everyone looks at AI is tool to empower than destroying.
Cant stop looking at you tshirt through, which brand is it :)
Hi Varun what you are saying looks correct but where will the energy to run AI revolution come from?
Defination of everything is going to be change
Thanks varun
Either accept truth and be adaptable or just ignore the reality and wait for the inevitable. We should not attach ourselves with our job or actually with anything, that's life. Nothing is going to be permanent. I like to become the adaptable one.
Bro I am currently 16 years old and want to be in robotics and ai
But I am worried that by the time I graduate college there willn't be need for engineers because of AGI or AI. Any tips?
Correct, do something else like core enng
That's a great insight , Through my observation i can say its just a start , Because out there people are building something unimaginable like SIAI ( Super Intelligent Artificial Intelligence) it can do everything for example were in state of confusion what to do but Ai has immense Clarity in there years everything gonna change !
If you are my echo chamber...then I have no problem.
I am spending my money on things that we help me reduce my expenses.
Less expenses to bear, less need to earn.
I loved the oart where you explained how we have constrained ourselves to some specific roles.
Well said
Really the best video out there. I can connect with you heart to heart. You are eeally a inspiration for me. Want to meet you.
All good things must come to an end
I believe the more you rely on something the closer the end is.
Just think for a sec if Internet goes out what catastrophic effect would it bring..
These opinions are priceless
Make videos using or demonstrating NViDea chips or accelerated chips which can be helpful
Hi Varun , perfios software solutions is a company which has a product for Indians in B2B space. And as you said it was declared as a unicorn just a few days back
17:59 I feel traditional jobs like sales,manufacturing,etc will be the one and also fields where human interaction is a must will stay forever what are you thoughts see varun first time I am asking you a question which was way in my head for past a quite long time but hesitate ki jawab aayega nhi but now I thought let's try
Nice video!! Volume is less from your end though.
This century can definitely be termed the century of the engineer
i have used speech to text software used in Medical Transcription, it does rhyme wotj what you are saying. You need to have a strong baseline performance and your tools needs to assist with it.
"AI is liberation not enemy." - Varun just changed my way of thinking about AI.❤
May i know what shirt you are wearing pls?
Okay, I understand, but what to do now? I am open to change but the thing is that senior software engineers will be guiding this ai, but as humans we still time to get to that level of being a senior software engineer, no ?
everything aside, your shirt is pretty cool.
Pls share the brand if possible....
Loved this philosophy focused video
Varun keeping it real ❤
totally 100% agree
Development of AI is much optimistic thing contrary to many people's beliefs
So many things have changed,.but only one thing that has not changed, is your abrupt 'Bye'😂. Simple excellent outro.
Can you please make a video like this on product designers?
