You are now a developer

In the age of AI, building looks different.

AI can generate the code — but humans still decide what should exist.

Understanding, curiosity, and creativity now matter more than syntax.

At #NTLDEPLOY, a question hung in the air:

“If anyone can type a prompt…are we all developers now?”

Netlify CTO Dana Lawson asked it.
Ado Kukic answered it.
And CEO @biilmann.blog wrote the manifesto behind it.

At #NTLDEPLOY, Netlify @biilmann.blog said it best:

“AI won’t replace developers — it will reward curiosity.”

Curiosity. Systems thinking. First principles.
The more you understand how things work, the better you can collaborate with AI and lead what’s next.

At #NTLDEPLOY, our speakers said it best:

“The definition of junior developer is changing.”

In the AI-native era, developers aren’t just coders — they’re product thinkers, designers, and problem solvers.
Software is cheap to build. Value is what sets you apart.

At #NTLDEPLOY, Yoko Li said it best:

“The new bottleneck is taste.”

AI can build features in seconds—but only humans can decide what feels right.

The next generation of developers will stand out by curating, not just coding.
