On the contrary the depth and breadth we're becoming able to handle agentically now in software is growing very rapidly, to the point where in the last 3 months the industry has undergone a big transformation and our job functions are fundamentally starting to change. As a software engineer I feel increasingly like AGI will be a real thing within the next few years, and it's going to affect everyone.
I don’t write code anymore. I don’t use ide’s anymore. The agent writes code. My job is to manage ai now.
The paradigm shift has already happened to me and there will be more shifts to come.
