I think there's still quite a chasm out there. Domain knowledge, an informed and opinionated view on how something should function, and overall tech knowledge are still key. Having those three things continues to greatly differentiate people of equal coding skill, as they always have.

That’s something LLMs are also presumably good at. At least I’m seeing more and more push to use LLMs at work for ambitious business requirements instead of learning about the problem we’ve been dealing with. Instead of knowing why you are doing what you’re doing, now people are just asking LLMs for specific answers and move on.

Sure some might use it to learn as well, but it’s not necessary and people just yolo the first answer claude gives to them.

Yeah, but I used to be a wizard with arcane knowledge making computers do things others didn't even understand. I was casting fireballs, and now everyone has Find Greater Familiar right out of the gate who does all the heavy lifting. :(
