Jon Krohn: What Gets You Hired in the AI Era
In a new episode of the Super Data Science Podcast, WWSG speaker Jon Krohn sits down with AI and cloud expert Priyanka Vergadia to explore how artificial intelligence is reshaping software development—and what that means for people building careers in technology. As AI tools make writing code faster and more accessible, Vergadia argues that technical professionals need to differentiate themselves through skills that AI cannot easily replace, including strong judgment, problem-solving, system design, communication, and the ability to connect technology with meaningful business outcomes.
The conversation highlights a broader shift in the technology workforce: knowing how to code remains valuable, but simply producing code is no longer enough. Professionals who understand the fundamentals behind AI and software systems, can evaluate tradeoffs, communicate complex ideas clearly, and use AI strategically will be better positioned to stand out. Krohn brings these evolving trends into focus through an accessible conversation about AI, career development, and the skills that will matter as technology continues to advance.
