Are AI tools the next level of abstraction in software development?

We created assembly code so we did not have to remember all the numbers that make up machine code instruction sets.

We created programming languages so we could forget the specifics of proprietary CPUs and operating systems.

Are we now adopting LLMs and MCPs so we don’t have to learn programming languages and APIs?

If so, before too long, we will forget how to think for ourselves and the AI models (and the Tech Bros behind them) will become our overloads.
