I agree with you, but also it won’t matter at that point because the job market for coding will have contracted to the point where practically no one is hiring.

But our job was never coding? Its always been to solve peoples problems with software. Coding was just part of it. A good engineer still understands the relationship between the problem its scale and the engineering necessary to solve the problem. There is an argument to be made that many leaps in the world don't really come from intelligence but from divergent thinking. Maybe when intelligence is solved, that doesn't mean we don't have anything to do, maybe the value shifts to creative and divergent thinking.

An artist bemoans AI, and a supporter of AI speaks up.

"Your job was never making art, it has always been to give someone a visual product."

The artist retorts.

"That may be true, but it is I who made the art, and my life shaped the process, and thus, the final product. I was hired specifically because my lived experience appeals to others."

The AI supporter laughs.

"But that's not what you're paid to do."
