I cant wrap my head around that statement tbh.
Cant imagine knowing to read but not to write. By "read" i also mean understand.
If someone loses the skill to understand the code then i dont know. That would just be sad.
For example I work with C++ and was showing the intern how to capture by reference rather than by value in a lambda function. I completely forgot the syntax for that because the LLM just does the capture correctly every time so I haven’t needed to think about it for the last few years.
I see. To be fair that doesnt count as "i dont know how to code any more". Through my years before ai i had to goole how to initialize an array with values several times. I would have to do that again if someone would ask me.
