We stopped writing zeros and ones a long time ago. The very first computers did that.
We don’t write in assembly anymore either.
Fortran and Cobol are pretty much outdated too.
C is still used quite heavily in kernels, embedded systems, and performance-critical code, but not much for most other things these days.
C++, Java, C#, Python, Ruby, and JavaScript were the next steps up in abstraction.
AI-assisted development is just the next level of abstraction we’re at right now.
Prove me wrong.
