In the realm of software engineering, is AI the assistant or the overlord?
Jensen Huang, CEO of Nvidia, thinks that computing technology needs to be created so that “nobody has to program”.
This is one side of the conversation. The other is that AI isn’t ready to take over the software engineering role and probably shouldn’t be, without sounding like an excerpt from. There are nuances to the broad statements of “the end of coding is nigh” and these are not easily unpacked in just a few sentences. AI is changing the shape of software engineering, but that doesn’t mean people will be replaced.
“AI is more of an assistive intelligence. That’s the way we see it going forward,” says Niel Coetzee, head of engineering at redPanda Software. “Think about the calculator. When it first came out, people thought mathematicians weren’t going to exist anymore, but their role has evolved. They just don’t do normal addition anymore. AI is the same.”Niel Coetzee, redPanda Software
