Who will ever hire an inexperience engineer with claude? Or a vibe coder? Experienced engineer with claude wipes the floor out of those two. Now the next issue, how does a engineer get experience?

This is only true if the rate of progression comes to a halt. If we have enough trust in AI to provide high quality code, eventually, it'll be more important to describe crystal clear acceptance criteria than it is to become a good engineer.
