The US is tightening immigration policies, and Big Tech is feeling the impact. With companies like Microsoft pausing green card sponsorships and proposed changes to OPT for international students, what does this mean for the future of tech jobs in America?

In this episode of Beyond the Build, we discuss how immigration restrictions could affect skilled workers, international students, and the tech industry, and whether these policies could push more talent and jobs overseas.

We also explore growing concerns around AI sovereignty and data privacy, Anthropic's handling of private Claude conversations, Claude's integration with Google Workspace, and Microsoft and Meta's massive spending on AI coding tools.

Finally, we discuss the future of AI interfaces, why understanding code still matters in the age of AI, and some interesting open-source projects worth checking out.
