An AI age in software development will yield massive returns to anybody who makes it to "senior designer-developer" by the end of this decade, IMHO, if only because the totally fucked up unmantainable code bases made by "automated junior developers" will much more quickly reach end of life (the point were it costs more to try and fix/upgrade them than to rewrite them) and need to replaced (and the way to do that is to reverse engineer the Software Requirements from the existing apps an then build from scratch something new that satisfies those requirements, something which LLMs are entirelly unable to do).
