AI can also generate the architecture for you based on the requirements, and ask the necessary clarifying questions.
It's not as good at this as writing code, yet. But it feels like it's better than most of my coworkers.
I think in a few months, system architecture will have its Claude Code moment, and humans will be outclassed.

Lost me at the first assumption. People can argue about how useful AI is, but it's obviously not essential because we somehow managed to write code without it a few years ago. I would even say the code was better back then.
The two tasks of writing code and engineering software cannot be separated without damaging the integrity of the mental model of the engineer. Having architects who didn't interact with the code always produced map/territory mismatches.
