Microsoft Distinguished Engineer David Fowler says typing code is over as agentic AI, Aspire, and Project Zenith reshape software development.

Full title: Microsoft’s distinguished engineer says “typing code is absolutely over,” and Windows 11 is already being built that way. Nadella previously said 20-30% code at MSFT is AI-coded, and Windows security updates now include AI-assisted fixes to fight AI-enabled threats.

    They should go back to typing code.

    Want to see a neat trick? I know for sure this will work on VMware if anybody has it. Use packer to make a custom Windows server 2025 template, make sure to patch it too. Deploy said template. Now watch as you have no GUI. They updated a bunch of UI components, swapping out for ‘modern’ versions. And someone about these Appx versions get fucked when sysprep runs. It’s been like this for months.

    I have no idea if this works on other platforms.
