I keep seeing this statement as a prelude to "AI changes everything", but my experience never really had me see writing as the bottleneck, but rather designing (technical and not) and supporting what's already there while building the next thing. If anything, being able to execute faster puts more pressure on those two parts of the process.

That doesn't appear to be the case now, well after the ascent of AI began. Job descriptions indicate that employers believe AI allows your average engineer to fulfill the responsibilities of front-end engineer, backend engineer, system architect and (to a lesser degree) DevOps.
