> The "writing code" part of coding has never been valuable in the first place
of course it has been, even very recently. where do you think all the demand for bootcamps and bootcamp graduates came from years ago? Why does basically every SWE interview consist of a large % of programming tests?
As for the rest of your post, I didn't say anything like that at all - but it seems like a trivial conclusion to say that "coding" will become less valuable as the interfaces become simpler to it (such as human language interfaces). This is hardly controversial and probably axiomatic.
