IMHO juniors who rely on AI to write code will never learn. You need to make mistakes to learn, and AI never makes mistakes even when it’s wrong. As a senior, I write code 25% of the time, and it’s always to understand the intent of what I should fix or develop. This is something that AI will not be able to do for a long time since it cannot speak and understand what customers want. The last 75% of my time are spent refactoring this "intent" or making sure that the business is running, and I’m accountable for it. AI will never be accountable for anything, again for a long time. I’m scared for juniors that don’t want to learn, but I work with juniors who outsmart me with their knowledge and curiosity.
