I have been having the following debate with my friend who does AI and neural network stuff:
Him: Coding will soon be obsolete, it will all be replaced by chatgpt-type code gen.
Me: OK but the overwhelming majority of my job as a "senior engineer" is about communication, organizational leadership, and actually understanding all the product requirements and how they will interface with our systems. Yes, I write code, but even if most of that were augmented with codegen, that would barely even change most of what I do.
