Sorry if it’s a dumb question, but as a software engineer student trying to understand the free software philosophy, is it possible for all software to be open source?

Or is that only able to happen in a true stateless society?

Assuming that all software is free and open sourced, then wouldn’t software engineers become obsolete?
