One very underrated skill that strong Software Engineers have is determining when computing is unnecessary to solve a customer problem.

Devs who don't pay attention to that while over-relying on AI will end up producing the worst kind of Software. Even if they feel "productive", their productivity will be completely offset by lack of humanity. Alas, all customers are humans, so they experience Software best the more humane it is.
AI Agents are an Anti-Social Developer's dream come true. Instead of such a dev learning to socialize and collaborate more with coworkers, they push off tasks to AI Agents to avoid collaborating with other Software Engineers, thus ultimately producing less humane inferior Software.

In my 20's, I personally pushed myself hard to get over anti-social tendencies in wanting to work on a computer alone in a corner. That graduated me into doing collaboration following the eXtreme Programming highly social approach, and then later settling on a less structured lean/agile approach.
