To me it's funny that a case even needs to be made. I've reviewd enough output of AI agents to confidently dismiss it as largely trash. Given enough time, this hype will blow over and LLMs will be another useful but not revolutionary tool for programmers. It won't even come close to replacing humans and it will require skilled developers to be used efficiently. Software craftsmanship is as valuable as it's ever been.

Given enough time, this hype will blow over

I tend to agree; however, during that time plenty of folks will be let go by middle management buying into the hype.

Most definitely! And in a couple of years we will hear about the lack of developers again. It's not my first rodeo.

That is my main beef with this particular hype train. People will be negatively effected by it, who had no choice in it. With the NFT hype a few years ago nobody was impacted unless they chose to dive into that area.

Or were using a product with management that wanted in. A handful of video games were negatively impacted, so their players were at least inconvenienced.
