Meanwhile, users complain the code shack is getting slower thanks to ReactGitHub CEO Thomas Dohmke has stated in a personal blog that the most advanced developers have "moved from writing code to architecting and verifying the implementation work that is carried out by AI agents."The post follows one from March when Dohmke repeated Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei's assertion that "in a short time, 90-100 percent of all code will be written by AI."Referencing recent interviews with 22 developers using AI tools, Dohmke identified four stages to AI developer maturity, from skeptic, to explorer, to collaborator, and finally strategist. In this last stage, developers no longer write code, having delegated that task to AI agents, but focus on refining prompts and reviewing and validating the generated implementation.

Directionally correct, I think. I don't think direct coding will entirely go away, but it will become a niche / specialized activity

99.99% probably. This is because AI will generate tons and tons of code. 10,000x more than humans "generate" currently, and thats a conservative estimate.
