This is FUD sold to you by snake oil salesmen.

Don't forget how humble you're being too!
Your comment as a whole feels very disappointing, because you started with an interesting thought about the currency of trust; before you ruined it by spreading FUD without evidence or argument.
Authenticity becomes the foundational currency.
But everyone must master AI tools to stay relevant. The brilliant engineer who refuses AI-generated PR by principle will get replaced. Every 18-24 months, as capabilities double, required skills shift. Specialization diminishes. Learning velocity becomes the only durable advantage. These people cannot learn new tricks.
Those who cannot question their assumptions cannot self-correct and will be replaced. The future belongs to the humble, the fluid, and the resilient. 60% of HN users is going toward a very tough time, and I am being very charitable with this assumption.
