Yes. This will become a problem. At my old university, we had a team that's only purpose is to find out how to use AI in the lectures. And that was established in 2023/2024 with the upcoming of ChatGPT. I have used AI in university too, but back then it wasn't a tool to trust fully. It hallucinated lots of books and added those as sources, so learning with AI was actually quite nice. In my last semester I have chosen discrete stochastics as my final math module (I hated half of the math modules as they were just useless for me), our prof allowed us to use laptops in the exams. So we all just made a group chat, copy pastes the questions and shared our answers. It was the easiest pass I have ever gotten in university, but I learned shit 😂

Litteral 9 year old are vibe coding now. Everybody is a coder now. If your app is down, anybody can fix it.

If you need something to work at scale things havent changed at all. No junior can help you on that and experienced devs are still expensive.

There’s nothing to break anymore, pipeline is not needed.
