Hire excellent programmers who spent their lifetime learning how to write good code and build systems, and then the code is easy. Hire some bad ones and watch them struggle and fail and learn why maybe coding is not that easy. AI doesn't change this, it just shifts failure modes a bit since the volume of code produced is now larger, and AI-enabled bad programmers are still bad.

I remember a tennis survey where something like 70% of respondents believed they could win a game against a Tennis pro player (I can't find the source anymore, but it was discussed on Andy Roddick's podcast). If you watch Roger Federer effortlessly and elegantly make beautiful shots, it's very easy to fall into this trap and think -- it must be so easy, right?? Are people falling into the same trap watching Claude Code regurgitate CRUD apps for them?
