AI Writes the Code, Engineers Still Design the System

Original: AI Can Write More of the Code. We Still Have to Engineer the System

A new essay argues that while AI can now generate large portions of code, software engineering remains essential: architects and developers must still design systems, define requirements, verify correctness, and manage complexity. The piece reflects a growing debate in the developer community about how AI-assisted coding changes day-to-day work without replacing the discipline of engineering itself.

Why now: Developers are actively debating how AI code generation reshapes their roles and responsibilities.
