SOFTWARE JOBS WILL NEVER BE AUTOMATE-

Optimization will be the best payed job in the future.

That's basically what coding is. You tell computer what to do. Or, in the case of big projects, you provide the logic and tell the code monkeys what to code.
They just changed the language to one that's easier to understand to untrained humans - and replaced most of the code monkeys, not the one providing the logic.

If you can specify unambiguously how your program should work that just sounds like another programming language to me.
I can only imagine executives and managers trying to design a system through something like this. I would like to know what the AI does when they say the UI should "pop"

Brainlets could always make shit in Word and export to a complete disaster of an HTML document. Frontend implementation is simply tedious; it takes no mental effort. Designing frontends that look good and don't make the user kill themselves is far more difficult and takes more than just drawing a shitty whiteboard prototype.

And none of the above holds a candle to actually developing software. Do do that, you need to be an engineer: Find a problem, discover the entire domain of the problem, solve the problem, write the code to implement the solution. "Coders" focus on step four, which is pretty much mechanical. Developers with real value handle the whole process. Replacing these people with AI will be the last true accomplishment of humanity, for that will mean we've completely automated problem solving.

It's like WYSIWYG, but even more inefficient!

why did it die?

because now there's (((frameworks))) that let webdevs put in zero effort at the expense of everyone else's bandwidth, load times, RAM, and sanity

And because almost any webdev has a rMBP with an i7 and 16 GB of RAM or an iPhone XS with 3 GB no one cares about optimisation anymore because

Office jobs are going to be the first to be replaced by automation. It'll be (essential) laborers and scientists that'll be the last to be replaced.

the present state of web development is an insult to people who
>take pride in their work
>understand the machine-level implications of the code they write and the software they use
>care about customers
>care about collaborators

yet another reason why it sucks to be poor

>website layout
You could also do that through drag and drop idiot.

I don't think that's how I've seen anyone use the term automation. We tend to use the term automation to just mean how you can not have to do as many steps and have a system to do some or as many of them as possible given the needed inputs.

it is their coping mechanism.

Good thing I have skills outside web development.
