How AI Changes the Way Developers Work
✍️ A Spotlight from Andrew Glago , Developer at pubGENIUS (🇬🇭 Ghana)
We asked our team: “What’s one specific way AI has improved your work?”Here’s what Andrew Glago had to say. And honestly it’s gold. 👇
💥 The Big Shift: No More Language or Framework Barriers
“For me, the single biggest game-changer has been how AI has completely dissolved language and framework barriers.”
Before AI, facing an unfamiliar tech stack was a real roadblock. The classic example?
🪲 “This software needs a bug fix, but it’s written in PHP 3.”
That kind of task could eat up an entire week learning the language, mapping the architecture, and cautiously debugging.
Now? It’s a non-issue. What used to take a week now takes hours. AI helps me understand the code, find the issue, and move on to building real value for the customer.
💡 As an engineer, I can now apply first-principles thinking to any language, any stack, and any challenge. It’s a huge force multiplier that lets me unlock value faster.
🛠️ Favorite Tool: Granola
“A big part of my week is jumping between meetings planning, stand-ups, syncs. Keeping track of it all is tough.”
That’s where Granola has changed the game.

🎯 Best part? No “Note Taker” bot awkwardly joining the meeting. It just works quietly and efficiently in the background.
🔮 By 2026, AI Will Change What We Build
“My prediction? The biggest shift won’t just be how we build software, but what we build with AI.”
Software development has been the perfect sandbox for AI tons of data, instant feedback, clear rules. That’s why tools like Copilot have been so effective.
But this is just the beginning.
Imagine:
🎬 “Cursor for video editing”
📐 “Copilot for CAD design”
🧠 “Notion for product strategy that thinks with you”
We’re not just working faster we’re about to empower other industries at scale.
🙏 Shoutout to Andrew for sharing his perspective! If you’re a developer using AI in cool ways or just trying to wrangle some legacy PHP we’d love to hear your story too. 💬
