"The AI bubble is also causing a lot of companies to believe in the idea of replacing their staff with AI."

Replacing generic slogan writers with AI might work, but replacing IT workers with AI at this point will be funny to watch (from a distance).

The expectation with AI is that fewer devs will create and maintain more. It's not that the tools aren't useful, but they're a lot more useful for employers to squeeze out more from employees.

The worst IT professionals, like bottom 10% (which seem to be in the top .01% for getting hired and holding a job, somehow), are about on par with AI in my experience. At least with Health care IT professionals, which might be a huge selection bias. I am just about as likely to see complete nonsense suggestions or a complete misunderstanding of the problem from either.

Oh, no doubt about that. But also like you said, people who hired them in the first place, apparently cannot judge them correctly, so won't judge correctly now, who to fire as incompetent.
