If a company is doing something remotely cutting-edge, no amount of low-code tools and low-skilled labour is going to help. Information retrieval, PB-scale data processing, robotics, embedded, graphics and video at any significant scale are all still too cutting-edge and will be for next decade as far as I can see. You hit performance and architectural limits pretty quickly when doing things naïvely. At this rate, growth at tech sector is going to create more demand (than created supply) for able programmers for at least a few decades into future.
