This is my take away too in the short term. Thing is, this isn’t harmless.
Seems like a new ceiling is about to be cast and if you happen to find yourself above it, or young enough to have time to adapt, you may be fine. But if you’re too junior to use AI well or to be valuable in your own right, you’re in trouble.
While you’re still trying to work out the components of a tech stack, a senior dev will be learning whole new languages and tech stacks faster than before.
And of course managers will probably fine.
