At this rate I would be shocked if junior developers can't function at a higher level than senior ones with the help of AI in a few decades.
I'd be shocked if there are developers at all in a few decades.
- nimblegorilla 3y agoIf AI makes junior developers "better" than senior developers then what stops senior developers from adopting the tools and becoming once again better than the juniors?
- Abroszka 3y agoThey are older and learn slower, they also learned a lot of biases over the years. They are often unwilling to accept major changes to workflow.
- cvhashim04 3y agoMaybe the second sentence is true but > They are older and learn slower, they also learned a lot of biases over the years Hasn’t this been disproven time and time again. And research has shown continuous learning helps to prevent or delay cognitive decline.
- Abroszka 3y agoI don't see why that would contradict my statement. Yes learning is good, but it becomes harder as we age.

- Workaccount2 3y agoI have looked at what they could do in 2017, 2020, 2022, and 2024. It's incredibly foolish to assume that the tech is stagnant to the point of still just being a "template engine implementer" decades from now, much less even a year from now.
