We finally found one reference to a French podcast that Gates might have been on as a guest, although we were never able to find the podcast itself.

A verified CNN interview shows that AI can replace simple coding tasks while struggling with the most complex tasks, and experts disagree on timing. Rapid AI-assisted development examples and concerns about a tech job collapse underline potential workforce impacts.
