AI is a pretty direct threat to software engineering. It's no surprise people are hostile towards it. Come 2030, how do you justify a paying someone $175k/yr when a $20/mo app is 95% as good, and the other 5% can be done by someone making $40k/yr?

Productivity improvements are good for workers; you should ask yourself why the invention of the compiler didn't cause this to happen already.

Or why the existence of the UK hasn't, since they have a lot of English speaking programmers paid in peanuts.
