AI natives switched to spec-driven development.

What kind of garbage statement is that? Every professional developer worth the toilet paper they use at the office is doing "spec-driven development". If you're not basing your code on the specs, then you're not doing the work you're paid for.

translating the ideas in my head into clear, repeatable instructions for the AI.

Replace the "AI" with "a computer program", and you are literally describing "programming".

Today’s best engineers are great at documenting intent that in-turn, spawns the technical solution.

Guess what, the best "engineers" (called "programmers" back then) in the 1970s were alse great at documenting intent that in turn "spawns" the technical solution. Start with the specs, turn those into a functional design, derive a technical design from that, then translate that into code - that's how I learned it 30+ years ago, and practically every software development methodology ever used in anger is some variation on this theme.
