Anthropic’s Boris Cherny, Claude Code creator, on future of software engineering

Anthropic's Boris Cherny, the creator of Claude Code, says software engineering isn't dying, it's multiplying. Speaking on Casey Newton's Platformer podcast, the Claude Code creator predicted 100x more people writing code or directing AI agents to do it, just under a different title. He urged 22-year-old CS grads to skip entry-level jobs and start companies, calling it "the golden age" for founders building with AI coding agents.
