If you’re not a developer you might as well use AI to become one?

Back in my day we used learn x in y minutes to get up to speed on a new language and then a week to get comfortable.

Now I can do that for anything in like 15 minutes.

Of course, coding is the easy part and anyone can do it.

Software engineering (key word: engineering) is the hard part and requires that you understand the computer, design patterns, and how to build robust systems.

Why should they want to become a developer? There is no need for everyone to become one.
It was just a suggestion. I personally don't really care what they or anyone else does.
