I think I agree. If I'm understanding correctly, the point you're making is that AI coding tools have completely disrupted the market for junior developers, making it near impossible for them to find opportunities. I've noticed this as well.

I suppose tech leaders are hoping that by the time the existing market of senior developers begins to retire, that AI coding tools can be used by anyone, making developers redundant. For what it's worth, I think this is wrong and will be disastrous for the software industry in the long run.
