I have my qualms with Anthropic/Claude but they've also had to scale unfathomably fast and that is just hard to do regardless.

Yes but many of the challenges directly contradict the idea that "coding is a solved problem"

I don't think coding is solved in the way they claim, but certainly solved in some way for many people. I don't write code by hand anymore, everything is through claude/codex/pi.

Still requires lots of work to shape the output correctly, but it's still crazy to me that I literally don't write code any more. And in that way, coding is solved for me.

Not really. Coding is probably solved, at least to a large extent, but that doesn't mean engineering is solved too. This is like someone saying that the wright brothers solved sustained/powered human flight, and another person saying "well if that's the case, why do planes still crash? obviously flight isn't solved.". Well, there are always improvements, but planes can fly and llm's can code.

"I think we're going to start to see the title 'software engineer' go away. And I think it's just going to be maybe builder, maybe product manager, maybe we'll keep the title as a vestigial thing." — Boris Cherny They been claiming more than just “coding is solved” for a while now. https://www.businessinsider.com/anthropic-claude-code-founde...

Sounds more like a vague prediction of what the future might be like rather than an iron-clad claim.
