It's not "prompting skills". AI is great at going and building whatever you tell it to build, but it's terrible at knowing what to build. It has no taste, no knowledge of what exactly would useful to a human vs not.

Most people don't either, and nor do 99% of programmers — hence their bitching that their mechanical transformation of requirements they got fed by someone else into code is now becoming worthless. It was never worth that much to begin with.

I'm very much like the grandparent poster: I love that I can now focus on what actually matters — which features are to be included, which excluded, and how every feature should work w.r.t the all-guiding user experience. All without having to wonder which sorting algorithm will be optimal here or how to wire up a db migration.

Sucks for code monkey ticket pushers though.
