    The problem isn’t that ai can code, or that people will be able to get a program off the ground with no experience, it’s that the profession will be completely devalued.

    People will come to you, and say they only want to pay 3 peanuts because “all you have to do is type it into the ai chatbot”

    I saw the same thing happen with web Dev when my civil engineer uncle said “anyone can build a website, I’ll just hire some high school kid” and this came from someone in professional services who should know better

      Yes, the position where folks tell you “I have an idea for the next Facebook! I just need you to code it” will be devalued. /s
