should you learn .NET & C# in 2026

Everyone keeps asking the same question: with AI writing C# faster than most developers, is it still worth learning .NET in 2026? I've spent the last few years living on both sides of this - building .NET apps at Microsoft, shipping ErrorOr and Throw, teaching Clean Architecture to thousands of devs on Dometrain, and now building Brilliant (a design tool that ships AI-generated code into production every day). So here's my honest take. In this video I break the AI-vs-developer reality into: What models are already extremely good at What they'll be good at pretty soon Where we still have some time If you're a .NET dev wondering whether to double down, pivot, or panic, watch this before you decide. 🎓 My .NET courses on Dometrain: https://dometrain.com/author/amichai-... 🎨 Brilliant (what I'm building now): https://brilliant.design X / Twitter: https://x.com/aimihia GitHub: https://github.com/amantinband LinkedIn:   / amantinband   If this helped, smash like and subscribe! it genuinely helps the channel and lets me keep making videos like this one. #dotnet #csharp #ai #softwareengineering #cleancode
