Artificial Intelligence (AI) is evolving into an autonomous craftsman, capable of writing its own code and designing systems beyond human comprehension.
AI models such as GPT-4, Copilot, and AutoML can perform tasks previously done by software engineers, raising questions about the future role of engineers.
The traditional notion of 'learning to code' as a safeguard for job security is eroding, and engineers will need to adapt or risk becoming obsolete.
The future of software engineering may involve shifting from programmers to curators, supervisors, and strategists, guiding the code rather than writing it.
