This will be a controversial opinion but I honestly believe the barrier is too low. We don’t give doctors a 6 month bootcamp and say “hey, go operate on some people!” Yet you can get hired writing code that manages millions of dollars quite easily. This isn’t a call for increased credentialism (I’m a college dropout and very proud of it). It’s a call for higher standards for everyone. If you want to write code that’s awesome, but it shouldn’t be easy.

Don't think I agree with this. Your suggestion doesn't raise the bar it creates a massive labor shortage and hurt the speed at which inexperienced devs can level up

There will be plenty of work for non-AI devs for building stuff that hasn't been done before, but for stuff that's relatively old (building websites) AI is perfect

“You can get hired writing code that manages millions of dollars quite easily.” I’ve found the exact opposite to be true. (Barring the golden era for SWE hiring in ‘21, that is.) As for passing multiple rounds of technical screens, I don’t think 99% of bootcamp grads could do it.
