I'm retired now, but I spent many hours writing and debugging code during my career. I believed that implementing features was what I was being paid to do. I was proud of fixing difficult bugs.

A shift to not writing code (which is apparently sometimes possible now) and managing AI agents instead is a pretty major industry change.

Anything you do with AI is improved if you're able to traverse the stack. There's no situation where knowing how to code won't put you above peers who don't.

It's like how every job requires math if you make it far enough.

As someone not close to retirement yet, it's a very sad shift.
