Do We Still Understand the Systems We Build? Tudor Girba

AI is accelerating software development at an unprecedented pace. But what if the real problem isn’t building software anymore?What if the problem is understanding it?In this episode of BASELINE, Tudor Girba joins Ian Smith to explore one of the most overlooked challenges in modern technology: the growing gap between the software we create and our ability to comprehend it.As AI generates more code, organisations are becoming increasingly dependent on systems that nobody fully understands. From legacy banking infrastructure and enterprise software to AI-assisted development and digital transformation, Tudor argues that the future of software engineering may depend less on writing code and more on learning how to read, understand and evolve complex systems.
