Technology is not a replacement for basic flying skills, it is an aid to it.

All pilots should be able to fly the aircraft visually and without the aircraft automatic systems.

The Technology is in place to enable the pilots to do the job in worse weather and more efficiently not to replace basic flying skills.

There is more to this accident than just a pilot screwing up because of a lack of flying skill, my guess is that the root cause of this accident lays deep in the cultural dynamic on this particular flight deck.
