  1. @StatGenDan The value of a programmer is not knowing what to write, but knowing what to ask. Explaining to an AI all the details, edge cases, error handling, and cost/size/speed/security/safety/aesthetic/usability tradeoffs is likely to be more burdensome than simply coding. This may flip when the AI can understand the problem and add extra-contextual value, though that feels a long way off.
