The people saying "anyone can build software now" often seem to mean "anyone can generate code now"... which is not quite the same thing

And when they point out the rare exception it’s always ”well, as a UX designer/product manager/etc I spent thousands of hours now working with AI to build products and if I don’t understand something then I ask the AI to teach me” - congratulations you haven’t replaced developers you just became one

Indeed. Anyone could always build software. Some people want to do it without actually learning anything or doing any work.

There are many things I wouldn’t mind doing without actually bothering to do the work, so I suppose I can relate.
