I think the more salient point is that going from writing assembler to C still required you to understand a lot about your machine, algorithms, how to debug issues, and in general it demanded problem solving skills.
Perhaps, but as far as I've seen they don't make the requirement go away. They do make many types of development far more accessible, as an extension of how SQL or Excel make development far more accessible. Sure, people make messes with the tools available, and sometimes the tools can handle it and still give you something useful, many times it takes someone actually knowing what they're doing to clean it up though.

LLMs eat away at all of these requirements.
