Braving the Change: Recalibrating to New Realities
summary
Students produce more code output when handed LLMs, and quality improves only when models are used as tutors; comprehension falls when code is copy‑pasted. Complexity leaps: teams build a Spring WebFlux service and a custom Redis caching layer for outgoing requests even after two weeks of Spring. A prototype attendance system using OpenCV→Microsoft Cognitive Services fails on edge cases until raw images are tested. A planning optimizer replaces manual schedulers. The practical advice: practice empathy, curiosity, bravery when adopting change.
