A vital shift is underway in software development, one that redefines how we build, but also who we are as developers.

Let’s start by acknowledging that this is from the CEO of GitHub who clearly has a huge investment in developers using AI as part of their development process. And this is a very small sample size that Is selected from those most enthusiastic about the use of large language models in that process.
But I do think there are some valuable insights in this that might help people chart their own evolution with working with these technologies. Some of the insights certainly reflect my own experience of working with large language models over the last three years or so as a software engineer.
