This is something I’ve said for a very long time. Everytime some RAD or “low code” tool claims that it will make developers obsolete because “you won’t need to write code”! I know that I’m going to need to help some BA use that tool and that there will be a tiny little box hidden in that tool somewhere which let’s me write code to work around its limitations.
LLMs are useful to a developer as a cordless drill is to an engineer.
Software development is about understanding logic, data structures, and how to solve business problems with computers. A language is simply what we use to do that.
