"AI won't take your job. Someone who uses AI will."

That someone is your co-worker and will soon be your co-worker's co-worker.

I don't see how the rate of job creation can come close to the rate job loss we'll see for a few years.

I really don’t see how someone is going to take another developers job unless the subject is developing cookie cutter landing pages or todo apps.

Other comments here say things like lower 80% will be laid off etc. but current LLMs are more like bottom 10% would be laid off, maybe.

The first line is just some cope people use to tell themselves they are different.

Someone using AI won't "take" your job, they'll just get more done than you and when the company inevitably fires more people because AI can continue to do more work autonomously, the first people to go will be the people not producing as much (i.e, the people not using AI).

In the limit both groups are getting their jobs taken by AI. Knowing how to use AI is not some special skill.
