Artificial intelligence is transforming the software development landscape by automating numerous coding tasks. Developers are increasingly moving away from direct coding to focus on delegating, verifying, and orchestrating AI-driven workflows, significantly accelerating the software creation process. This shift suggests a potential decrease in demand for some traditional coding roles. However, overall demand for software developers is projected to rise, with a greater emphasis on roles that require ambition and the ability to leverage AI tools to achieve broader and more complex objectives. Insights into this evolving role were discussed on Reddit’s Artificial Intelligence forum. [Reddit Post: https://old.reddit.com/r/artificial/comments/1n8fg67/developers_reinvented_thomas_dohmke/]
