In my opinion this should have always been the case. All designers should be able to code and do html/css. It's the medium of design.

That’s what CEOs think lol. Let’s see if it pans out!

I've been a developer for over 2 decades and I've been using AI in our react codebase for the past 3 months. Outside of some optimizations there's not much a designer couldn't debug through Claude Code. 90% of the industry is toast.

I want to be wrong because I'm watching the death of my entire career, but everything I've seen is pointing to this as an inevitability. We are shipping better and more secure code, and doing it easily twice as fast. Many development teams can be cut in half today with no reduction in output. I don't want to say it out loud at work yet, but we're actually producing too much.

Leading question, feel free to ask a more honest one.
