  9. Our readingThe programmer AI replaces is the one whose purpose is coding itself; an engineer whose purpose is finding problems to solve is not replaceable.

    Their wordsAnd so if the purpose is not coding, if your purpose literally is coding, somebody tells you what to do, you code it. All right? Maybe you're going to get replaced by the AI. But most of our software engineers, all of our software, their goal is to solve problems.
