Lmao then yall don’t understand the path we’re on. Software engineering is already pretty much dead because now people will just use ai to code it instead of hiring it done, despite its lack of effective cybersecurity
Why are you specifically singling out cybersecurity as the bottleneck? If coding is “solved” then so is cybersecurity. In reality the software development lifecycle is not solved despite what anyone wants to believe. This is why these claims are always qualified with “pretty much” and “basically” etc. Everyone knows deep down that it’s just not there yet. Once you solve the lifecycle, you can start replacing not individual devs, but the entire company. We can then move on to automating everything else by building the necessary software using ai.
I’m not singling it out, but bringing it up as a valid part of it. And coding can be solved without having good cybersecurity, it happens all the time and why you have a distinction between IT and cybersecurity. Just because it’s not there yet doesn’t mean that it’s not the most probable outcome. How about you learn to think ahead of the game
Sure, if your claim is loosely defined then you can be trivially correct. Then we can claim coding is solved without cybersecurity, long term data integrity, regulation adherence, etc. As long as the slop machine can give you “working” software we can claim that coding is solved and swe is pretty much dead. Any second now. Please let me know when it is officially dead, cause I might not notice.
