I disagree on the reduce demand part. Companies have no shortage of ideas and products they want to implement. Execution is the limiting factor right now. I fully expect programmer demand to remain constant at first and then increase as new classes of products are made possible because of AI.

BTW, this is what’s happened with every other programmer productivity increase. No company has responded with ‘cool, our product is done’ and instead has expanded what the product can do. Customers then expect more, and the cycle continues.
