Yes, and...

Carson talks about whether students should still consider software engineering as a career. He thinks they should:

Computer programming is, fundamentally, about two things:

  1. Problem-solving using computers
  2. Learning to control complexity while solving these problems

I have a hard time imagining a future where knowing how to solve problems with computers and how to control the complexity of those solutions is less valuable than it is today, so I think it will continue to be a viable career even with the advent of AI tools.
