    Software Engineering is not dead, damn it. Anything research and original is not dead. Are these things fantastic at connecting concepts, producing digital work products, and putting out derivate hypotheses? Sure. But proper original thought is still firmly in the realm of humans. Though speed of propagation of new ideas probably did change massively.

      Even if you are right here (and I think you are), software engineering can still be dead. 95% of software engineers are not doing research or doing anything original.
