This little line from the article scares me: "but a software engineer would iron out the remaining potential bugs that I could not find quickly"

Every sw dev knows this is a very dangerous, and unrealistic, assumption.

it's basically a tiny statement that kind of hand waves all the 'actual stuff'.

It's "I did the first/easy 90% now someone else do the second/hard 90%". Same as it ever was.

We're not supposed to be crude on HN but that's some real Dilbert level stuff right there. Like spit out my coffee laughing, cringing. It's too bad the Dilbert guy seemed to have lost his mind in meta level cynicism (and maybe his legacy as well) and also passed away, because we kind of need him now. Dilbert is almost made more for the AI age than the computing age.
