AI and developer obsolescence: is this the beginning of the end?
12 March @ 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm
Speaker: Seb Rose – consultant, coach, trainer, analyst, and developer for over 40 years.
Everything looks solvable if you ignore most of the complications. Many things look impossible when you’re overwhelmed by the details.
Abstraction has been fundamental in helping humanity harness computing technology to deliver world changing solutions. But, over the years, there have been many failed attempts to raise the level of abstraction and empower the wider population to create software without the need for specialist developers. And the need for skilled software developers has risen inexorably.
Does the current interest in AI and low/no code development simply herald the cyclical return of our economy’s yearning for ever higher levels of abstraction and reduced reliance on software developers? Or has the technological landscape changed sufficiently to make developer obsolescence a more likely outcome?
