The typewriter was the beginning of the end of the art of handwriting.
Factories was the beginning of the end of hand-created goods.
AI has killed the art of handwritten code (which itself automated away other forms of art).

The life of a programmer these days feels very weird. "What am I good at?" and leads to even more impostor syndrome... "I seem to still be 'good' at prompting my LLMs and managing workflow design." but it's definitely a different skill/feeling than when you cranked out some awesome piece of code that did something very neat.
I felt this way a bit when I was tech middle management; should I feel like I'm getting credit for my team's work, when I had very little input aside from helping with the "unblocking" when they ran into a tough problem.
