I wonder how good AI is at playing Factorio. That’s the closest thing I’ve ever done to programming without the syntax.

I never said Software Engineering is dying or needs to go. I'm not the least bit afraid of it.

In fact, in the very message you're replying to, I hinted at the opposite (and have since in another post stated explicitly that I very much think the profession will still need to exist).

My ideal world already exists, and will keep getting better: many friends of mine already have custom-built programs that fit their use case, and they don't need anything else. This also didn't "eat" any market of a software house -- this is "DIY" software, not production-grade. That's why I explicitly stated this is a new way of human-computer-interaction, which it definitely is (and IMO those who don't see this are the ones clearly deluded).

Yes you sure are.
