It's evolving into engineering. Look at a real engineer (the ones who need to get certified). What do they do? They review plans and calculations. They verify the plan complies with relevant engineering standards. They verify the solution is safe and fit for its intended purpose. They stamp it and accept legal and professional responsibility for whatever happens.
There's going to be less 'hacking' and more verifying that you've got E2E encryption and meet the privacy standards required... or justifying that this problem does not require E2E.
- akkad33 1y agoThis sounds like a very feasible outcome
- tacostakohashi 1y agoI can see that happening. Just like there is a distinction between a pilot and a flight attendant, or a doctor and a nurse, there could be stratification between a "professional software engineer" that is more of an oversight/responsibility role than hands on, that supervises a bunch of vibe coding / AI slop and makes sure nothing bad happens.
- akkad33 1y agoBut the difference is not anyone can be a nurse and doctors don't just oversee nurses, they do other stuff too. In any case these two jobs require real training.
