I'll hang around until I retire, picking up the work abandoned by programmers leaving the field. LLMs can't do everything. Any programmer who doesn't advance their skills (technical, business, and people) enough to compete with LLMs won't survive long-term competing with human programmers. In my own (40+ years) career in programming I've seen many people get stuck at the expert beginner[1] stage, if they even got that far. LLMs can replace them in some contexts, and perhaps in more contexts before too long. I don't worry about LLMs putting me out of business, though.
