You cutoff a generation of juniors from employment and learning , the seniors are gone and it's all harnesses and AI systems.
I'm not all gloom and doom but the treatment of junior engineers is something I think we will either regret or rejoice. Either will have a spur of creative people doing their own independent thing or we'll have lost a generation of great engineers.
This is not happening at least for 25 years, is what seniors I trust tell me.
