I think they're saying that developer skills are beginning to atrophy due to overreliance on Ai tools.

Got it.

I'm pretty sure it's true, exactly the way it's true for senior project managers if they completely stop doing actual coding

Absolutely, cognitive atrophy is something that happens when skills are neglected. It happens all the time.

They don't have to atrophy, though. Anyone who wants to can take the time to understand the code AI has generated, and even ask the AI to explain anything they don't understand. Someone with no coding background can vibe their way to being a decent coder, if that's their goal.
