No, I don't think it is temporary. As AI becomes more powerful, we'll simply ask it to do more difficult things. There's a level of complexity where "do the thing" is insufficient. We'll never be at a place where AI can infer vast amounts of nuance from simple human requests, which means that humans will always need to be able to describe precisely what they want. This has always been the core skill for software developers, and I just don't see that changing.

Do you believe a junior developer now will never surpass you?

Why couldn’t AI do the same?

> We already kind of see this with music - it's able to spit out "Bangers"

“Bangers” being roughly equivalent to garbage mass marketed radio pop? Or “We are Charlie Kirk” lol
