I worry a bit about people who like writing code but don’t like reading and debugging it. There are enough “throw it over the wall” coders.

Yeah, AI will kill all mundane brick layering jobs.

The real software engineering role, with architecture, customer management, discovery phase, risk analysis and all the other kind of stuff, not yet.

I have people skills damnit!
I don't mind reading and debugging my own code, or any other code written with a plan by someone with a clue.

Reading and debugging slop code is not the same thing, not even close.
