Not for a long time. I think LLMs can be as good as humans at coding and humans will still have coding jobs. Business people have to trust that the system being built is upto spec, that it will not break randomly because the machine took some instruction too literally, and more importantly, when shit hits the fan, they need actual bodies in the war room.
Will there be as many jobs as there are now? No idea but my guess is even if there is a shrinking of the market, AI will not be anywhere near the top cause. It will be more mundane reasons like the market itself stabilizing/shrinking, commodification of software skills etc. Said another way, the world does not need 1 million distributed systems experts. With or without LLMs, the bubble will pop someday and a lot of them are going to be out of work.
