Programming is the art of turning fuzzy requirements into hard computer instructions. Translating a poorly defined “want” into code.

As higher-level interfaces emerge, increasingly mediated by AI, the job of programmer is still the same, but increasingly philosophical.

What is it that you (your manager, your customer) really want? What should happen when things go wrong? What does value mean in this context?

These are programming questions in the age of AI. It’s less about syntax, and more about satisfying contextual human desires.
