The way I see it, its undetermined if Generative AI will be able to fully do a SWE job.

But, for most of the debates I've seen, I don't think it the answer matters all too much.

Once we have models that can act as full senior SWEs.. the models can engineer the models. And then we've hit the recursive case.

Once models can engineer models better and faster than humans, all bets are off. Its the foggy future. Its the singularity.
