Oh, I agree with you!

Like I said, they've been saying that code-gen would replace us for years, and it hasn't happened yet. There are two complications with model driven development. The first is that someone actually has to take the time to thoroughly model the application, and the second is that most models require customization.

It's very powerful (and does reduce the number of required human resources) when it works optimally, but I agree that we developers will have jobs for a long time, if we want them.
