My humble opinion: “deskilling” is an illusion. Sure, I don’t write code by hand anymore, but I spend most of my time using the knowledge and “sixth sense” I’ve developed throughout my career to control what AI is doing.

At the end of the day, I have to make more architectural and business decisions than before - it’s just higher-level and more complex work.

On the other hand, there’s increasingly little reason to hire someone just to write APIs or work on the frontend, since AI handles most of the routine tasks.

So, this feels much more like the Industrial Revolution than “deskilling.”
