- webmaven 5y agoI get that we're basically arguing over the Christensen Innovator's Dilemma, and I acknowledge that at some point ML-driven solutions will cross the 'good enough' threshold that eliminates certain swaths of work wholesale, but I don't think that an increase in the demand for software development and automating away most of today's software development related tasks spells a decrease in software development pay, any more than desktop publishing was a harbinger for fewer graphic designers or lower pay for graphic design work.
