The amount of skill required is still pretty high, IMO - if we set a requirement that a programmer thoroughly understand what they're shipping.
If we remove that requirement (as most around me seem to be doing), then yeah, not much skill required, but the system is going to steadily trend towards being a buggy, unmaintainable pile of sloppypasta.
Maybe the models get good enough they can handle maintaining that, but anecdotal reports so far seem to indicate we aren't there yet.

I guess we'll see if AI 2027 pans out.
