Wu added, however, that ”vibe-coding” is not a term she uses. “We definitely want to make it very clear that the responsibility, at the end of the day, is in the hands of the engineers.” … “There’s so much software that isn’t created today because we can’t prioritize it,” Walsh said. “So it’s going to drive demand for more software creation, and that’s going to drive demand for highly skilled software engineers who can do it.”
Economists, however, are also beginning to worry that AI is taking jobs that would otherwise have gone to young or entry-level workers. In a report last month, researchers at Stanford University found “substantial declines in employment for early-career workers’’ — ages 22-25 — in fields most exposed to AI.
a more mainstream coverage of coding with AI. I’m in the optimist camp that even if I don’t write code in the future I’m still maintaining it and owning it.
