Your Survival Guide for the AI-Transformed Software Landscape
From three-second aha to ten-second implementation. From code as craft to code as commodity.
The rules have changed. GitHub stars are dead. Years of experience? Irrelevant. Your ability to memorize syntax? Worthless. When AI can write code in seconds, what makes YOU valuable?
Created by seasoned developer Andrzej Tuchołka, this book cuts through the AI hype to deliver brutal truths and practical strategies. No corporate consulting BS, no vendor feeding frenzies — just real insights from the trenches of the AI transformation.
🚀 What You'll Master
- ✓Algorithmic Gatekeepers - How AI models became kingmakers
- ✓Trust Protocol - Building credibility when anyone can appear expert
- ✓Economics of Abundance - Business models at zero marginal cost
📚 What's Inside
- •16 Core Chapters covering the new reality
- •Real Case Studies from the AI transformation trenches
- •Future-Proof Principles that remain relevant 3-5 years
"AI is making bad developers obsolete, but great developers superhuman. This book shows you how to be on the right side of that equation."
— Andrzej Tuchołka
16 Chapters. Zero BS. Pure Strategy.
The 10-Second Integration
Why patience is extinct and speed to value is the new baseline. From boilerplate death to intent-driven development.
The Algorithmic Gatekeepers
How AI models became kingmakers, deciding what code gets written through training biases and recommendations.
The Attention Singularity
Competing when AI can generate infinite alternatives. When creation costs approach zero, mindshare becomes everything.
The Modern Success Stack
Ten critical attributes for AI-era success. Feature-driven development is dead when AI generates any feature on demand.
The Velocity Paradox
Why the fastest way to ship software in 2025 is to stop rushing. Mathematical reality of thoughtful development.
Distribution in the AI Era
Navigating new walled gardens and platform monopolies. The Vercel-Next.js playbook and resistance strategies.
Engineering Serendipity
Manufacturing luck and discovery in a world of infinite noise. The compound timing game and controversy as a feature.
The Trust Protocol
Building credibility when anyone can appear expert. Track records over credentials, public failure as trust-building.
Narrative Engineering
Why stories matter more than code. Creating mythology around tech decisions and teaching through storytelling.
The New Tribal Dynamics
Death of mega-communities, rise of micro-tribes. The most innovative work happens in groups of 12, not 12,000.
The Contribution Economy
When implementation becomes trivial through AI, ideas become everything. Pull requests died, patterns replaced them.
Governance at Scale
Decision-making in hypergrowth, fork explosion, and automated governance. Culture that scales beyond relationships.
Economics of Abundance
Business models when marginal cost approaches zero. When AI generates any code, only trust and time remain scarce.
The Maintenance Myth
Hidden costs of AI-maintained code. The dangerous belief that AI can handle maintenance while humans move on.
Personal Sustainability
Orchestrator vs implementer paths. Building transferable expertise and portfolio approaches to career management.
The Next Paradigm
Patterns that transcend technology shifts. Building for unknown futures and creating lasting impact in the AI era.
