AI Will Replace Routine Work, Not Responsibility

Use AI for routine tasks like CRUD and JSON transforms, and keep ownership of the result yourself.

“If you focus on the result and leverage AI, it will not replace you.”

  • AI will replace routine work such as creating CRUDs and transforming JSONs, but not the ability to take responsibility.
  • Engineers who blame AI or deny it put themselves in trouble, while those who focus on results and use AI stay relevant.
  • Gleb started as a full-stack developer 8 years ago, doing tasks like adding documentation or fixing endpoints, and now he says doing such work by hand is a mistake.

Im not sure why ppl are still saying that "AI will replace X role". It will if the X role is about routine like creating CRUDs and transforming JSONs, but it will not replace the ability to take responsibility on yourself. If you focus on the result and leverage AI, it will not replace you. If you're just blaming it and denying it - so you can find yourself in troubles

I started as a full-stack developer 8 years ago, and initially, my job was not about building systems. It was just "add documentation" or "fix this endpoint" type of tasks. Nowadays, if you are still doing this by hand, you are definitely doing something wrong.

Of course, there are exceptions and exclusions, but in general - just use AI for that
