GPT4-5 will change the nature of the job: instead of digging thru a pile of smelly code to find the right place to fix something, you'll ask GPT for a list of suggestions, and the top suggestion will be usually correct. However if it generates an arcane script to update your database, you can't trust it and can't verify the script without assistance from an expensive software dev. There is some similarities with lawyers: gpt4 can write a lengthy contract for a few cents, but you still need to pay a lawyer thousands of dollars to verify it. However, when gpt gets fluent in formal logic, the number of knowledge workers needed to run a business will shrink tenfold at least.
