Unfortunately, those shifts are not happening. AI is seen as a quick fix and not a thoughtful one. Sorry for the rebuttal. Proves I’m not an AI. AI would never apologize.

Fair point, and I share the concern that AI can be used as a shortcut instead of a thoughtful tool. The challenge (and opportunity) lies in ensuring teams don’t just chase speed, but utilise AI to deepen their understanding and free up space for genuine problem-solving. That balance is tricky, but worth striving for

Actually you need a developer that has learned how to develop THEMSELVES without asking an AI. At least then, the code might be correct and/or debugged. If they need help to know how to develop they can ask a SUITABLY EXPERIENCED developer. We haven’t all died off yet.

Appreciate your perspective. I agree that strong fundamentals and the guidance of experienced developers are irreplaceable. My point isn’t that A.I. removes the need for those skills, but that it shifts where teams should invest. If developers can both learn the craft and learn to effectively orchestrate A.I., we get the best of both worlds
