"But now, AI writes most of the code, and the thrill of crafting something from scratch has quietly faded."

Bold claims! 1. Sometimes it's faster to code with AI, sometimes it's slower - I wouldn't say you can back up the statement like "AI writes most of the code". And I would argue that it will always be the case, unless we have AGI 2. I don't know about the faded thrill; we will always create things that work on the computer and programmers will always have the advantage there. The nature of creating is changing slightly, which in any case was always true - punch cards, assembly, C and then higher level languages. Change is the nature of this craft. You must embrace it to stay relevant and enjoy it

Some of its is mentioned in the article, but it claims and language are definitely exaggerated a bit.

The first point, making something which fulfills a need. It is sad that this needs to be repeated so often.

we’ve been promoted from typists to architects - AI handles the code, we handle the decisions about what’s worth building and why.

Have you ever built a house? The most important person is the site manager you have to trust and constantly communicate with. An architect and a mason are not enough. So where is the role intersecting the craft, feasibility and the actual circumstances in AI?
