> I don’t know if I feel exhilarated by what I can now build in a matter of hours, or depressed because the thing I’ve spent my life learning to do is now trivial for a computer. Both are true.

I'm not so sure... I mean it's true that regardless of if you are a beginner, junior, or 'senior', if you say "build me an instagram clone" Opus 4.5 will probably do a decent job. I think the skills go still in understanding architecture, and just knowing where pitfalls and problems can arise, or even making some important 'abstraction cut' prompts. I think applications can still grow to a point where you still need to prompt at specific domains only, or the model will fail to do everything you want it to - especially if you give it massive 'fix this this this anad that too' prompts
