Where will developer wisdom come from?

A self-taught developer reflects on how he acquired software wisdom over decades through trial, error, and hands-on coding. He then questions whether that hard-won wisdom is still necessary in an era of agentic AI coding tools like Claude Code, which can build, review, and fix software autonomously. He confesses to shipping a working website without ever reading the generated code, and wonders what will feed the next generation of AI models if developers stop writing code themselves. He ultimately leans optimistic, suggesting future developers will operate at a higher level of abstraction, but acknowledges that the nature of developer judgment is fundamentally shifting.
