I found this thought funny. A few years ago everyone was all learn to code so you don’t lose your job! Now there wont be any programming jobs in 10 years. But we will need a lot of manual labor still.

    The vast majority of coding isn’t making something new, it’s using existing patterns and tools and arranging them to fit a specific use case.

    I would argue that arranging something to fit a specific use case is making something new.

    Ask any designer how difficult it is to get a spec sheet from a client and meet their expectations. We’re expecting LLMs to suddenly solve this problem.

    Llms may not be able to create a new framework or design pattern

    Until they can do this, there is little threat to designers. There will be less grunt work, of course.
