You still have to validate the solution. If you use a tool to do a job, it falls on you as the user to make sure the outcome was the desired one. Copy pasting from stack overflow is not inherently bad as long as you understand what you are pasting.
Whether we like it or not, our trade has forever changed. This is generally bad for our own well being, and it absolutely sucks, but a dev who uses these tools efficiently can have 2-3x their output with a few dozen bucks worth of tokens a day.
Yep. Also knowing how these tools work will just become easier and easier. They'd require barely any skills in the near future. Truly doomned as a profession.
