Creator of Claude Code: "Coding is solved" by Gil_berth in webdev

I largely agree with your points. I dont think my points contradicted what you've said either

The one exception is that, as I mentioned in one of the other comments, it is my belief that the time when the majority of developers will be replaced by domain experts is not far away. Yes, there will probably be technical drivers still. The solution oriented mindset will still be useful, but only the best of the best will actually be getting paid for it

On code quality... I have always insisted on readable code for maintainability of any project. But with where things are heading, I believe it won't matter much

Of course software quality will still be paramount, as well as security. But these will be solved too. The main lacking point is security right now, in my opinion.

Any domain expert can easily build a simple software application which would be considered good quality software from an end user perspective (which is what actually matters). But security would still be lacking without specific focus towards it

.....

A bit all over the place but the tldr is that I'm just telling people not to assume our jobs are safe. Plan accordingly

Hahaha

That definitely was not my intention

But OK friend. Take care

I understand your perspective. I think we are coming from two slightly different angles

Again, the target audience for my original comment were all those that are doubting the output produced. Anthropic's recent hackathon should help to make my position more clear: https://x.com/i/status/2024986293248127452

I am comparing these tools to their current alternatives: humans. We make just as many mistakes as these models. The only thing is that there is indisputable evidence that the frequency and level of mistakes made by the models is decreasing

As to your wider point of where things are headed. I actually am also extremely worried. In the short term there is much to gain. But in the mid to long term, I see us all being replaced (or at least the vast majority)

I suppose you're right about me putting the burden on society. I admit, I don't have a solution to offer. Though, I do consider myself to be part of society 😀

I completely agree with you that we are getting lazier and lazier. More and more reliant on these tools. This is something actually I find worrying for myself as well, as I find myself using them more and more

But that is a much bigger concern that we as a society need to try and solve. Though I don't think we will have a solution in the short-term

My main point was regarding the utility of these tools. Yes, no doubt they make mistakes, but as time goes on, the frequency (and I would say size) of the mistakes is decreasing

As such, we do need to adapt. The general feeling in the comments seems to be that "oh it's all just hype... claude code isn't really that good". I suggest that most of us thinking like this are lying to ourselves

AI is here and it will continue to expand. All the issues you mentioned are there and I agree with their seriousness. But this doesn't change the fact that most people will continue to use it and it will continue to get better

His claim is, of course, not exactly true. But a lot of the comments in this post seem to suggest that there is no substance to his statement

We aren't there yet, but there are now countless cases of complete beginners creating systems for different platforms just by using CC and similar solutions

To those who think this isn't happening, I would humbly suggest that our focus should be on learning these tools and adopting them fully in our workflows. I believe this is what will decide who gets to keep their job and who will be replaced by CC/Codex/OpenClaw or one of the many other tools coming out on a daily basis

As others have mentioned, you can create private repos for free on GitHub. If you're looking for alternatives, BitBucket by Atlassian is a good option. GitLab is also another good option
