The Next Software Crisis Won't Be About Writing Code
AI generates code faster than ever. But thirty years of software crises tell the same story: every time we confuse producing with building, we lose meaning, and every time, a movement brings it back. Agile restored the why, Craftsmanship and XP the how (TDD, clean code), DDD and Clean Architecture the what (modeling the domain, not stacking features). Each time, we rediscovered that the real value of our craft lies beyond code production.
Today, AI pushes us toward a new crisis: not technical, but architectural. When code is nearly free, "good enough" becomes invisible and technical debt compounds at the speed of light.
Drawing from 20 years of building software, creating the Koin Kotlin Framework, and running Kotzilla, I'll show why architecture and domain modeling have never mattered more. Then, using dependency injection as an example, I'll walk you through architecture observability to give both developers and AI agents the context to make decisions that hold up.
