> So when there is a bug / outage / error, due to "automatic programming" you are first in line and ready to accept accountability when it all goes wrong in production?
Absolutely yes. Automatic programming does not mean software developers are no longer accountable for their errors. Also because you can use AP in order to do ways more QA efforts than possible in the past. If you decide to just add things without a rigorous process, it is your fault.
Agree. Much of the value of devs is understanding the thing they're working on so they know what to do when it breaks, and knows what new features it can easily support. Doesn't matter whether they wrote the code, a colleague wrote it, or an AI.
