Have you been under a rock in the last two years?? Code is written solely by AI now, and hence it needs to be understood by AI only. Humans can still give some feedback on architecture and high level design to feel important, but even that has its days counted already.
It's funny, because in my experience, the process often looks like:
1. Human gives high-level design.
2. Agent generates wrong code with misleading comments.
3. In further iterations, agent get mislead by said code and comments, ends up generating insane workarounds.
