this thread's premise assumes AI will make "developers" obsolete. jotjotzzz's comment assumes that AI will create new jobs to replace the old ones.

assuming the premise of the thread, that some hypothetical AI replaces all the developers, I was questioning why such a hypothetical AI would be able to do the work of developers, but not do the supposed "new jobs" jotjotzzz believes would arise.

basically, if AI ever becomes autonomous and general enough to fully replace developers, it will be autonomous and general enough to handle any new jobs that pop up too.

AI needs to be trained, it cannot create knowledge in a vacuum. I think that's why there will always be some augmentation by humans to provide the context and the knowledge
