> You build something to begin to discover the correct requirements and to picture the real problem domain in question. You lose that if the agent builds it for you, though; there is no iteration cycle for you, only for the agent. This means you are missing out on a bunch of learning that you would previously had gotten from actually writing something. Prior to agents, more than once a week I'd be writing some code and use some new trick/technique/similar. I expect if you feel that there is no programming skills and tricks left for you to learn, then sure, you aren't missing out on anything. OTOH, I've been doing this a long time, and I still learn new things (for implementation, not design) on each new non-trivial project.
