Don’t Let AI Erase The Next Generation Of Dev Leaders

Don’t let AI erase the next generation of dev leaders

As AI tools take over more routine coding work, some companies are cutting early-career dev roles — a short-sighted move that could quietly erode the next generation of tech leaders if we aren’t careful.

  1. There is a missing chunk of code on the bottom of the first code block for App.js. The code does not work as it is. If you are stuck there, use the following code.

    “`
    import ‘./App.css’;
    import { useState, useEffect } from ‘react’;
    import { formatUserName } from ‘./utils’;

    function App() {
    const [users, setUsers] = useState([]);
    // load data from server

    useEffect(()=> {
    let mounted = true;
    const getUsers = async () => {
    await fetch(‘https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/users’)
    .then(response => response.json())
    .then((data) => {
    if (mounted) {
    setUsers(data);
    }
    })
    }
    getUsers();
    },[]);

    return (

    Users:

    {
    users.map( user => (
    { user.name } { formatUserName(user.username) }
    ))
    }

    );
    }

    export default App;
    “`
