Makes me wonder if the hardware engineers look at software engineers and shrug, “they don’t really know how their software really works.”
Makes me wonder if C programmers look at JS programmers and shrug, “they don’t understand what their programs are actually doing.”
I’m not trying to be disingenuous, but I also don’t see a fundamental difference here. AI lets programmers express intent at a higher level of abstraction than ever before. So high, apparently, that it becomes debatable whether it is programming at all, out whether it takes any skill, out requires education or engineering knowledge any longer.
