I wouldn't be surprised if by making code 5x cheaper to write, aggregate demand for code goes up by at least 5x, and possibly more. The history of computing is full of technologies that made it cheaper to create software (compilers, debuggers, high level languages, version control, increasingly powerful hardware, widely-available open source frameworks, etc...) and as programmers became more efficient and effective, the scope of problems they've been tasked with has kept growing. I think there is a good chance that LLM coding assistance will be a similar story.
