I think the dichotomy between how developers have reacted to LLMs (mass adoption) and how authors, illustrators, etc. have reacted (derision, avoidance) demonstrates that coding was never an art to begin with. Code is not an end in itself, it's an obstacle in the way of an end.

There are people who enjoy code for the sake of it, but they're a very, very small group.
