As someone who’s been following tech closely for over a
decade, I’ve seen countless innovations come and go but few have stirred as
much excitement and debate as ChatGPT.
ChatGPT has developed, and launch ChatGPT 5, it genuinely
seems that the enhancements have significantly slowed down. Previous iterations
led to significant advancements in AI capabilities, particularly in assisting
with coding. However, the enhancements now seem minor and somewhat gradual. It
feels as though we’re experiencing diminishing returns in the extent to which
these models improve at truly substituting real coding tasks.
The vast majority of people say that AI is going to replace
software engineers very soon. Yes, AI can perform simple activities and support
routine activities, but where there are intricate things like planning the
system, tackling more challenging problems, grasping actual business needs, and
collaboration with others, it hasn't been able to catch up yet. These
require creativity and rationality, and AI has not attained that yet.
Yes, the tech is great and will continue to improve, but the innovation is not revolutionary anymore.
I believe AI will remain an excellent
helper that makes developers' jobs easier rather than doing their work for
them.
It’s excellent for streamlining the tedious aspects, but the
distinct talents that engineers possess will not be replicated by AI in the
near future. It will turn into yet another tool that we will need to understand.
