The post itself is AI (or co-AI) slop, which means it can be just ignored.

>If an idiot like me can clone a product that costs $30k per month — in two hours — what even is software development? (...) The new software developer is no longer a craftsman. It’s the average operator, empowered

For the majority, it also means further degradation of the kind of jobs one will be able to find.
