The Dawn of the Renaissance Developer | The Kernel

This article from The Kernel discusses how generative AI is reshaping software development, arguing that it will not make developers obsolete but rather usher in a new era of the 'renaissance developer'. The author contends that while AI can generate code quickly, it lacks the nuanced understanding of business, customer needs, and real-world constraints that human developers possess. The article emphasizes that the core skills of developers—creativity, curiosity, and systems thinking—remain as crucial as ever in an AI-augmented world.
