Most of having a job is people skills. Whether we’re writing jQuery by hand or prompting ChatGPT 9.5 to output our work, your most important job skills will still be collaboration, communication, and in some cases just being a good hang.
I do agree, but this is HN, so I'm going to do a thought experiment.
Imagine ChatGPT could "translate" from grumpy-old-curmugeonish into friendly-human in realtime, then which soft skills would still be valuable? Imagine going to a shop and being served by a grumpy curmudgeon whose poor English was translated instantly into great customer service.
What changes with this? To what extent will this ever be possible?
