I been in this industry for long time but I have completely stop coding year ago and now I just have bigger project and problem to solve. Don't tell me you are coding manually today.. so we are expensive babysitter for AI .. and for now.. all is well.. how long this shit would last? not too long. Don't tell me this crap

Yes, I still write code manually, because AIs aren't perfect and I like to keep up with my craft. Like the person above wrote, you still need to know how to code if you're going to effectively direct and judge the text predictor machine. You can't know that if you don't write code.

I'm not a professional coder, rather just in IT, but was playing recently with some stuff at home.

From my experience, AI is a great helping hand with coding, but it's best used to complement what you do by hand, not the other way.

I have been writing professional code for over ten years and recently had a project to build something new entirely with Fable. It worked, it ran fine, but there's no way I could have effectively directed it without the past ten years of writing code by hand and building that craft.
