No, but it is very likely that it reduces to demand for coders and artists.
Sure, there will always be demand for a Linus Torvalds or a Damien Hirst. But will there be demand for Coder #365968 at Infosys or a graphic designer pumping out $50 ad banners?
We’re looking at the possibility of some white collar jobs having the same income disparity as creative jobs. Just as there are some musicians who make hundreds of millions while the vast majority barely make ends meet, we may have a future where the star programmers make millions while the average players are automated out of the competition.

But there could be a boom of huge new investments into A.I products, more devs needed and in fact teams getting way more requirements since they are more productive. Imagine the stuff we will be able to build in things like search, personal assistants, biomed, in fact what industry won't this affect? Its unbelievable to me that people are now saying Google search might become obsolete, that's absolutely crazy. Not many people saw that one coming. But at least initially I don't think GPT models will be able to do everything themselves. So its very hard to determine that say in the coming 5 years devs will find it more difficult to get a job. 10-20 years from now sure, I don't see how anyone gets a cognitive job anymore let alone devs. In fact our entire school/university system is probably obsolete, kids are probably learning skills they won't be able to apply in any job market. We need to start think about stuff like teaching kids emotional intelligence, spirituality and meditation...not cramming for a math test.
