AI Can Write The Code -- What Part Do You Keep?

There is a version of the AI conversation that is mostly about fear: Are software engineers getting replaced? The question that caught my attention from the ExperiencedDevs subreddit was different.

This developer was not primarily worried about losing their job. They were worried about losing the part of software development that made them care in the first place.

They can hand increasingly complex work to an LLM and get something useful back. That's impressive, but it also leaves them wondering where they fit into the process. The building, the problem-solving, and the feeling of making something are starting to feel different.
