Palantir's success in deploying AI through its Forward Deployed Engineering (FDE) approach has set a new standard, prompting other companies to adopt similar methodologies. Meanwhile, software engineering job requirements are expanding beyond coding to include AI literacy and judgment skills. Industry leaders like Anthropic's CEO and Kent Beck warn that AI could replace traditional coding roles, emphasizing the need for people skills. Personal career decisions also reflect these changes, with engineers choosing diverse paths such as staying local despite lucrative offers or transitioning to entirely new fields with AI support.
