I'm wrapping up a project where I did the back end, and Claude did the front end under supervision of a nonprogrammer, and I'm convinced even more than before that programming as a profession will continue to exist, and probably in a better form.
Related: my kid was concerned that generative AI art would destroy the need for human artists, and I don't believe that either. If art survived the invention of photography it'll survive this.

@mjd @pozorvlak I'm old enough to remember when the usual job title was "Analyst/Programmer" - a new term to suggest someone who did both of the old jobs of Systems Analyst and Programmer. If we all go back to just being Systems Analysts it would be no bad thing.
