'Software Engineering is done.' Direct from Horse's mouth. He is core member of Anthropic who shipped Opus 4.5 yesterday..

But just below that in the next message he contradicts himself, so much that models can't do - architecture, system design, understanding users, coordination across teams etc.
All those activities are also part of software engineering. So software engineering is nowhere near "done". At the best case, coding/programming might be done. But coding is anyway a very small part of software engineering.
So his post "software engineering is done", is just typical exaggerated marketing hype from these people trying to sell their models. Don't believe it literally at face value 🤦♂️
You won't require 100 software engineers to do what can be done by 10 expert software engineers with the help of AI
"Software engineering is done"
Been hearing this for 3 years now
Meh, I'll see it when I see it. If what you are solving for are solved problems, then sure, your AI compadre will be fantastic
"You're absolutely right."
