The opposite actually. I suspect some programmers may come to realise what some of the people in product, design, marketing, who they suspected didn't do very much at all actually do. Finding programmers especially those who self-define as programmers with good product instincts is hard.

It's funny how AI has suddenly caused this great awakening in developers/mathematicians: that building stuff or working on purely technical stuff wasn't their actual value, but rather "taste", "understanding", "deciding what to or not to build" etc. It's like the parts of the field that were janitor-adjacent have suddenly being elevated and they now define the field. This transition happened so fast that it'd make your head spin if you're paying attention.

You spend more time saying no and finding justifications than in the editor.

		The problem with smart people is that they are able to construct ever more elaborate justifications for their own mental gymnastics. That said, if you think developers have never enjoyed telling other people what to or not to build, I recommend checking out Stack Overflow.
