> Here is one report that projects a $25B market by 2030

My guess it's much larger than $25B

This is no longer a market for software tooling, it's started to eat the software engineering salaries, freelancer marketplaces and consulting/outsourcing/bodyshop revenues...

If there are ~ 30M developers now globally, earning $100K/yr on average, and this will reduce it to 20M, so we get 10M * $100K = $1T

Even assuming that 90% will go to foundational models, not IDEs / coding agents SW, we still get ~ $100B
