If producing quality code no longer requires skilled programmers, you’re right. As it stands, LLMs produce very raw code that absolutely requires lots of human oversight to qualify as functional.
Nah, I agree with them. All the skilled programmers are getting fired by a bunch of companies with poor financial sense who want to blame everything on AI. Also, if this thread shows anything, then it’s that prospective skilled programmers would rather ask Claude to do their homework for that quick dopamine hit than actually learn that they’re supposed to use parameterized queries so that some random kid’s mom doesn’t delete their production database.
If they figure out a way to refine the slop code with another agent, there will be hardly any need for programmers in the future. We’ll see how that works out.
In the meanwhile, LLMs are being used for cyberattacks and many companies are deploying lots of vibe code everywhere. What could go right…
If things continue as they are, eventually there will be no more skilled programmers.
