These tools are incredibly impressive, and they will probably only get better as time goes on.

However, most software being developed and maintained out there is not part of greenfield projects. It is new pieces being built upon the pieces that came before it. Years and decades of different styles, formats and convention.

Sure, in a few years these tools will speed up how quickly some parts of the UI or some internal logic will be created.

But I am not seeing these tools take over the biggest part of my job: connecting vastly different systems together.
