It's true that AI is making traditional algorithmic abilities matter less in the job market, so people naturally are less drawn to it. Just look at the stackoverflow demise story: SO is also a community for people who like solving coding issues, and they are experiencing a really steep decline in traffic.

But I think the other, maybe even more significant issue is that the market for coding-related tools and services is completely oversaturated these days. I recently saw that the daily launches on producthunt increased 20 fold due to AI. The market for pure software stuff is extremely competitive nowadays.
