This subthread started by welcoming that you can be more efficient by spending less time writing code and more time prompting an AI and double-checking what it produces. My point is that’s not an attractive outlook for many software developers, and as one of them I certainly don’t welcome it. From that perspective, the progress in AI may turn out to not a benefit for those software developers, in terms of job satisfaction.

The fact that companies may see that differently is beside the point, and I don’t particularly expect them to care for my preferences. I will however certainly continue to choose employers that happen to accommodate my preferences.
