Thoughts on losing skills

Leia em português →

Well, another AI-themed post but I've been thinking about this a lot and this blogpost (and a few others Mr. David Bryant wrote) sums up a lot of the discussion around how are we no longer programmers. Yeah everybody has an opinion about it, no one can predict the future, but what bothers me the most is the "deskilling" he mentions; loosing the ability because we just let A.I do everything - even if we read it, review it, and manually type parts of the code. And there is not a conclusion that we can actually take from all of this, its more like a personal decision to, when possible, write yourself something, work on a project or keep studying so we don't loose the grip of what we once knew...

I realize I'm so addicted to AI that even before re-reading this post I asked it to review the grammar (when I could check and correct things myself...) lol
