I am not saying anything of that sort, all I am saying is that layoffs are not happening because of "automation and AI". If a company wants an inhouse dev team they'd do so without "automation and AI", the thing is, they don't and that's why enterprise software companies are formed. Sure, I can bake my own bread, grow my own vegetables, mine coal for electricity myself, but I don't. I do what I do best and leave the other stuff to others. It is upto companies to decide if they want to build infra for them.
