>No, software engineering is fundamentally changed because of AI. No amount of digging our heads in the sand is going to undo that. Yet anyone who claims that fails to procure sufficient evidence or instruction on how exactly training the to-be software engineer in the age of AI should be. Until that happens, people still learn DSA, write code manually, and train their problem solving skills with programming exercises. And I mean handwriting them, not ordering "one solution for Leetcode 1133 in Rust, please" so we can proclaim that we're writing Rust so fast that I don't have to read a book about it anymore.

Of course there's no instruction on how to succeed in a rapidly changing new field. Do you think someone is more likely to succeed by getting their hands dirty and trying things out or waiting around for 'instruction' to be available? > people still learn DSA, write code manually, and train their problem solving skills with programming exercises. Maybe you're confusing computer science with software engineering? I agree that you'd still need to learn about algorithms, just like calculators do not reduce the need of learning algebra and trigonometry.
