Pedantically, sure. The field ChatGPT is most impactfully commoditizing is low-level coding. Instead of someone giving natural language instructions to a team of humans, they're increasingly able to give them to an LLM. It's an open question how far this can scale. But we may be near the zenith of the practicality of large-scale coding expertise.

The field C is most impactfully commoditising is low-level coding. Instead of someone giving opcodes to a CPU, they’re increasingly able to give them to a compiler. It’s an open question how far this can scale. But we may be near the zenith of the practicality of large-scale coding expertise.

Pedantic, maybe, but “coding expertise” isn’t going anywhere.
