CS is definitely becoming a less profitable field, but I think blaming AI is naive and unfounded. A non-technical friend of mine tried coding with AI help for a week his opinion is that "AI is not nearly as useful as people are making it out to be". I agree. I use AI for certain small tasks, but it is WORLDS away from being able to write a full app, much less a complete architecture. It is completely incompetent in the truly difficult parts of computer science.
