These people are clueless.

Software engineers still have a job to do, AI has just changed it, said Ethan Mollick, an associate professor of management at the University of Pennsylvania’s Wharton School and author of the upcoming book Co-Existence.

Who the fuck... when the fuck... it's NEVER been about who writes the most code.

chasing new skills

I quit my software job and now I'm broke and studying horticulture lol
I haven't been this consistently happy in years

In a post developed world, you’ll be better positioned bringing horticulture to the table than software skills. Though you have those too if and when they’re needed.

Surprisingly how happy you can be broke, isn’t it? Not that I recommend it but yeah

The job is changing, not disappearing. Writing syntax is becoming cheaper, but understanding systems, tradeoffs, security, debugging and talking to humans is still expensive. The engineers who treat AI like a power tool instead of a rival will probably end up building more, not less.

Those engineers can eat a dick and I will do everything in my power to avoid ANYTHING AI related. I'm bringing back bullying tech nerds.
