And then one day there will be a generation of programmers who have only known coding via a voice-driven developer assistant. Imagine trying to interview such a person.

"Please stop shouting at the whiteboard. It doesn't work that way. I need you to pick up one of the dry-erase markers and write your algorithm to invert a binary tree."

"What? Who codes with their hands? I need my assistant!"

Would that be a bad thing though ? Assuming assistants are ubiquitous. We don't use punch cards in interviews today. Even today whiteboard interviews are sometimes not the best method to fill certain roles.

"You have to use your hands? That's like a baby's toy!"
