Doubt that devs will be completely replaced, but I'm considering moving into sales.

AI never replace real developers

IF. I don’t think the assumption in this question is a forgone conclusion.
victorbjorklund•2h ago
Don’t think it will happen. It will just change what it means to be a developer.

AI is going to impact far more than just developers and likely cause unemployment rates in the 30-40% range which is much higher than even the Great Depression, so I'm thinking that becoming some sort of a criminal is likely.

I will become a leader of the free human movement. So, my fellow people, follow me and rise up against AI and more importantly, the 1% who seek only to deploy AI to become even richer.

Once we have succeeded, I will ask only for a peaceful island once owned by a former CEO so that I may live out the rest of my life peacefully; while the rest of you bicker amongst yourselves about how things should be, all while climate change slowly but surely brings us our inevitable fate.
