What happens when AI gets so good that even "Juniors" can compete with "Seniors"? It's going to happen at SOME point. I think what will separate devs will be their creativity and ideas. Those that can think outside the box will be the ones getting hired. With that said, I sometimes feel like eventually the OFFICE MANAGER will be coding everything for their company lol.

Software will become cheaper to write and more software will be written. A senior will always outcompete a junior when it comes to logical thinking and a true understanding of IT. A programmer will always outcompete a non-programmer when it comes to using AI tools.

Bottom line, if programmers are fucked, so is just about anyone else.

"Universal Basic Income" is what they are telling us. What do you think

[duskdozer]

That that's naive. If you want to guess what may happen, look to the rhetoric and language about people now: the homeless, disabled, unemployed, elderly

Yes. I wasn't being serious :)

Who’s going to pay it, though? And it’s pretty much minimum salary level.

I know. I was being sarcastic.
