That's my thought too. It's going to be a triple whammy
1. Most developers (Junior and Senior) will be drawn in by the temptation of "let the AI do the work", leading to less experience in the workforce in the long term.
2. Students will be tempted to use AI to do their homework, resulting in new grads who don't know anything. I have observed this happen first hand.
3. AI-generated (slop) code will start to pollute Github and other sources used for future LLM training, resulting in a quality collapse.
I'm hoping that we can avoid the collapse somehow, but I don't see a way to stop it.
