The article argues against the narrative that AI will imminently replace software developers, emphasizing the human elements of the job. Developers play a significant role in organizational processes and need to collaborate and communicate effectively before coding. Despite advances in automation tools simplifying routine coding tasks, the essence of programming remains in speculative innovation and the ability to navigate complex systems, something AI cannot replicate fully. Thus, developers will continue to thrive in their roles, adapting as tools evolve.
A professional developer does not work in a vacuum. Their job involves considering various processes, systems, capabilities, and resources at an organization before coding.
The main job for a developer is speculative - answering the question 'Could we?' and exploring possibilities beyond routine implementations.
