SWE moves up the stack. Juniors need to get really really good at shipping demos quickly, and writing excellent requirements based on core user need. ack bias, former PM

Right, the analogy would be "What does being a builder mean if carpenters are swinging the hammers?" We'll have to be software "Foremen" who develop plans and know enough algorithms, data structures and architecture to tell the AI how to frame the house and what kind of pipe to lay even if we're not doing that ourselves.

As far as we can tell, AI is giving us superpower, not taking our jobs
