Kevin Surace describes how LLMs now generate entire applications in hours, shifting developers from writing code to managing AI. Programmers who thought they were irreplaceable now barely touch the source code their teams produce.
Coders went from writing thousands of lines of code to not writing a single one. Here's what changed. If you remember a couple of years ago, we were all using coding tools and they were a little bit of a help. But then this breakthrough happened that was like, oh, I can get up and leave. And 6 hours later it wrote the entire application, front end, back end, and it works. Once you got to that level of competency, it changed the game and it changed us psychologically where we've had programmers going, you know, for 2 years on LLMs, oh, they'll never get rid of me because I'm still doing 80 or 90% of the work to I don't write a line of code anymore. And certainly all my coders that work for me, all my developers, they don't even look at the code anymore.
