This is a refreshing opinion, and also matches with my own experience. Many software engineers around me have now made the conclusion that AI will take their jobs and they're thinking changing careers already. I feel this is too early to tell. The prompts I write are all very technical, someone without my expertise would struggle with just an agent to talk to. Every time I do something outside my expertise, it is not as fast as one would imagine. Expertise do help tremendously and keep things in order

in fact engineering job openings are skyrocketing, just far beyond the big megacorps. AI was a neat excuse to correct the covid overgiring phases, now axes happened while lots of people built lots of new things they couldn't before and at some point it "swamps" under the complexities of reality at scaling up, thus engineers are needed. jibs are shuffling around yes, but demand will be surging even more soon.
