Because they know how to talk to the AI. That's literally the skill that differentiates seniors from juniors at this point. And a skill that you gain only by knowing about the problem space and having banged your head at it multiple times.

- zelphirkalt 1y agoThe actual skill is having knowledge and knowing when to not trust the AI, because it is hallucinating or bullshitting you. Having worked on enough projects to have a good idea about how things should be structured and what is extensible and what not. What is maintainable and what not. The list goes on and on. A junior rarely has these skills and especially not, when they rely on AI to figure things out.
