It could also be possible that AI doesn't write code but becomes the new software. Hook it up to libraries, contractions, databases and pump it full of the verbatim ramblings from the client, sales guy and manager. Sure, it costs a magnitude more power to run but it's up in no time.

Then hire a few consultants that used to be senior engineers for an outrageous amount to trace the weird hallucinations and replace the mission critical part with real code.

The future is going to be wacko.

That's the way it's going now. People are making agentic stuff. Even in my company people are experimenting on something like that. Setup an agent, hook it up to the APIs and let loose.
