You have very optimistic assumptions about AI. Of course AI will not "replace you" on its own, but some person in the company will decide it.

That’s first time I hear I’m optimistic about AI. I am as optimistic as I am about a hammer or a liquid scale. They are tools and they are good for particular jobs, if ypu know how to use them.

I am in careers that is one of the more sheltered from automation. Present tech layoffs I suspect are more due to insane overhiring during covid as well as outsourcing. I am sure some companies have gone to full AI psychosis -mode, but they are taking a massive risk. Time will tell.
