Really, thoughtful and balanced write up. Striking a balance between keeping skills like reviewing and writing well structured code and using the black box to do for it or help speed you up is to going to be hard to strike. Then again, we have gone through similar shifts before e.g. LSP, search engines, stack overflow, etc.
I don't know, I suppose that as things change, they tend to remain the same in a strange way. Definitely, a disorienting time to be a software engineer right now. Even more so for new grad devs.
