Coding used to be the gatekeeper. If you couldn’t code, your idea stopped there.
That’s not true anymore.

In this episode of Harry’s Hot Takes, I talk about how AI coding tools like ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini completely changed what it means to build things — especially for people like me who aren’t software engineers.

As a mechanical engineering student, most of my ideas involve hardware, prototypes, and physical systems. But almost everything needs code now. Sensors, motors, websites, interfaces. AI didn’t replace engineers — it removed the friction that used to kill momentum.

I also explain how I used these same AI tools to build a real product and launch a real website, why “I don’t know how to code” is no longer a real excuse, and why judgment matters more than syntax in 2026.

If you’re interested in AI, engineering, startups, product design, prototyping, or building things faster, this one’s for you.

Apple’s back with the iPhone 17 — thinner, weaker, and $100 more expensive (innovation, baby). Meanwhile, a cowboy-hat-wearing robot named Rizzbot is out here complimenting strangers like he’s your drunk wingman. Ultimaker’s new “secure” 3D printers just went full Amish (no Wi-Fi, no fun), and Ted Cruz decided AI should go full Wild West with a two-year no-rules sandbox.

This episode has it all: billion-dollar press releases that create fewer jobs than a Taco Bell, robots in Nikes spitting nonsense, printers stuck in 1995, and DC pretending they understand code. Welcome to the future — it’s insane, hilarious, and you’re the beta tester.

Forget jetpacks—Silicon Valley gave us robotaxis. In this episode, Harry dives into Waymo’s generative AI gamble, Zoox’s Vegas rectangle-mobiles, Tesla’s endless “next year” promises, and why the streets are turning into a tech turf war. From safety recalls to data battles, from toaster-on-wheels jokes to the bigger question of who’s really in control, this is the hot take you didn’t know you needed on the future of driving.

Harry breaks down the chaos, the stats, and the absurdity of trusting a car that thinks more than it sees. Buckle up—your Uber driver may as well be a toaster.

Israel and Palestine are back in the spotlight (like they ever left), Trump is playing pragmatist-in-chief while Biden snoozes through history, New York politics are somehow even messier than the subway, and everyone’s suddenly an expert on DEI, immigration, and who should succeed Trump in 2028. Oh, and Yali showed up to drop Bible timelines and realpolitik like it’s a TED Talk nobody asked for.

In this second episode of Harry’s Hot Takes, Harry Goldberg (ft. Yali) dives into the chaos of the Middle East, the madness of NYC, and the circus of American politics — with sarcasm, hot takes, and zero filters.

Markets are spiraling like a sleep-deprived teenager, the moon’s going goth and turning blood-red, India just Alt-F4'd its entire gaming industry, a Chennai clinic made the funniest billboard of the year (our mission is Uranus), world leaders are awkwardly power-posing at a summit, and AI is once again trying to steal your job (or at least your TikTok feed).

In this first trailer episode of Harry’s Hot Takes, Harry Goldberg rants about the ridiculousness of life, the news, and everything in between — with sarcasm, hot takes, and zero filters.
