Embrace it instead of fighting it. Delegate simple tasks to GPT, I found it useful as an example generator. There are so many niches you can create software for, not necessarily well paid but fun and with new tools like AI you may deliver solutions quicker. That being said, I kinda feel sorry for all these folk who jumped into the IT bandwagon with dreams of making more money without actually having deep tech background. I guess, AI backed tools will reduce need for junior positions significantly very soon.

It's easy to say embrace it, but we aren't that far off from a fully capable developer. People are already stitching task based flows to make it basically build a whole thing and a big thing.

The majority of the software industry is in a lot of trouble and honestly given that it was one of the highest paying industries that's not great for the economy.

What are people supposed to even do? What's next for all these displaced workers?
