Four gears of AI-assisted development: from coding to context
Developers are moving from copy-paste to orchestration. Each gear shifts what the human actually contributes.
Why context engineering was always the job
AI knows the world in general but not your domain; the engineers who get real results were always doing the context work.
The ladder was always context
Matteo Collina splits software engineering into three tiers (tech firms, enterprises, small businesses), and in each the bottleneck shifts from building code to holding context.
Context engineering beats prompt tricks for AI agents
Anthropic argues that “context engineering” — not prompt tricks — is how agents stay accurate at long horizons.
Developers are becoming context technical writers for AI
Fabrizio Ferri Benedetti highlights docs-driven development and the rise of technical writers as “context curators” so AI can truly RTFM.
