If anything, I think the junior generation is going to ramp past where they are at today. I'm personally doing this now and my engineering mentor has been reporting me having a lot of things figured out better than they expected for my experience. It helps so much to be able to rubber ducky a new term, problem or even to just double check my own code against another opinion. All of that helps, even if it's half correct in its advice. The design patterns I have started to use (and understand!) with its suggestions helped me have "consistency and readability that's years beyond my experience". Now I'm 20 years into a related role doing a switch to Eng, and that definitely helps. But if the first thing AI does is speeds up our overall ability to move the tech workforce around, that's a huge win.
