Musa Qureshi asked software engineers what they would do if AI becomes better at coding. Mike Three replied that artists opposing AI miss the point: value comes from the message and meaning, not process or product. Shaw added that art without communication or impact receives no attention. Justin agreed and noted the scarcity of strong conceptual collection ideas, comparing delegation to film direction. Anders stated AI is consuming the industry and anyone believing they code better than AI is delusional.
