    If anyone claims that coding is solved or not solved with such conviction, I expect some hard data, like comparing the density of bugs in human written vs. AI code, and how it trends over time. This article is just vibes.

    "Don't confuse coding with software engineering" is a valid point, the rest seems like ranting.

      I think the entire framing is wrong, I don't see coding as a "problem" which can be "solved," sounds the same as "we solved writing," like what does that even mean or look like?
