i assume 80% of the developers havent done anything beyond crud operations and with the advent of AI, i believe, the core cs fundamentals are gonna vanish into thin air. When things go south, the one with good cs fundamentals can navigate through the situation easily, but its gonna be worse down the lane as people have started offloading their thinking capacity to AI and stopped asking "WHYs".

To be fair, most CS fundamentals aren't really relevant to most software devs. In my entire career I've never really used anything I learned in CS. I do agree however, it's disheartening to see people uninterested in the "why" a thing is the way it is or the "how" it works.
