Maybe my analogy is off, but I've been thinking of it like high-end restaurants not being threatened by fast food chains.
I'm trying to understand what I'm missing here. You describe these "AI whisperers" who can tamp down complexity, but doesn't that still require strong fundamental skills and deep knowledge of how to build software? Or am I thinking about this wrong?
If it eventually lifts this ceiling high enough that everyone can build with AI, how does this not simply become minimun wage work?
In which case, what's the unique value proposition?
The way I see it, either:
1. AI gets so good that everyone can build anything (in which case, why pay premium for whisperers?)
2. Or it stays limited enough that you need real engineering skills (in which case, we're back to valuing traditional expertise)
