The death of the software developer

In 2026, the developer who writes every line by hand and reads every line with their own eyes will disappear. So what should us poor developers do now? Maybe we should start a new carrer as plumpers? I believe you no longer need to pay a human to turn an idea into code. Idea -> Code You still need humans that even know which Idea is worth to implement. What should we even built > How can we built it You still need people who build software that actually solves other people’s problems. Also you still need a group that cares and maintaines a codebase. Even a notorious rewrite like Adobe’s port to Rust will only last if someone maintains it. So I dont think we will see the end of Software but roles will be obsolte or they will merge. If you are a software developer, try to sharpen these skills now: Understanding the Business of your prodduct Improve your Communicatoin skills Networking Markting And Aim to be a Generalist with High Agency.
