> People say AI is “good at front end”
I only say that because I'm a shit frontend dev. Honestly, I'm not that bad anymore, but I'm still shit, and the AI will probably generate better code than I will.
As long as humans are needed to review code, it sounds your role evolves toward prompting and reviewing.
Which is akin to driving a car - the motor vehicle itself doesn’t know where to go. It requires you to prompt via steering and braking etc, and then to review what is happening in response.
That’s not necessarily a bad thing - reviewing code ultimately matters most. As long as what is produced is more often than not correct and legible.. now this is a different issue for which there isn’t a consensus across software engineer’s.
