Quality may become the defining factor. Anybody can vibe code software, but only someone who is actually capable of programming themselves and has some understanding of what good UX looks like, how to fix bugs (often subtle and not caught by LLMs), and how to achieve high performance and low resource consumption can build high quality software.

I think developers who have an inclination towards UI/UX and a good grip on the technical side are particularly well positioned right now.

		I’ve been using Claude and it’s decent… sometimes. It’s still capable of making rookie mistakes and it will happily let those accrue if you don’t point them out (and even then, occasionally it won’t see the problem). Personal technical familiarity with the domain still brings a lot to the table.
