I'll second (third?) the "I'm not worried about being replaced by AI" camp... In fact, I actually think unless your getting into foundational work in AI, "AI" is probably a riskier career then "traditional" programming in the near future. Everyone seems to want to pivot "work in AI" so there's gonna be a TON of relatively inexperienced people looking for work in the field in the next 2-5 years..
