Is that not what we are already?
We are skilled in setting out instructions for another piece of software to follow in producing the appropriate sequence of 1s and 0s.
Software development will always be about discovering requirements, reconciling inconsistencies and contradictions, and describing them in a way that comes out with something useable.
There will always be people more or less skilled at that. I'm somewhere near the bottom of mere competence. Despite my best efforts, I'm getting further from mastery, not closer, and I really don't see that changing just because of ChatGPT. In fact , I've looked at the prompts people are using to get useful code and feel even further behind than ever!
This comment started as just little joke, but now I'm not so sure.
Good point(s). Maybe it's because I'm neck deep in Assembly and I'm finally really understanding what is happening when I create a program. It's so much work and I've spent so much money to have a long-term career that is actually challenging and interesting to me.
I can see the merit in treating AI as another tool in the box.
I haven't done assembly since the VIC-20. Hand assembled with the Programmers Reference open beside me. (What was that opcode again?)
I understand where you're coming from. Anything looks too easy after that! :)
You'll be fine. Just keep one oar in the water (stay abreast of what's going on so you don't get caught off guard).
