learn how to do what you want to do (software?) without AI before ever stepping foot inside agentic solutions. that's how you'll survive.

edit: simply amazing to get voted down for this. apparently "become competent" is bad advice on hn now.

I did learn it first, but I'm still worried. I'm writing programs, but whether that's the right thing to do is a different matter

Lots of new people entering the space who were not competent enough to learn to program and now think they can be the equal of somebody with decades of experience.

AI is great, yes but prompting makes people more stupid so I think as nature strives for balance, the intelligence will be balanced too and the smarter clankers get the dumber humans get.
