The barrier to entry will be raised, though isn't that always happening in software, regardless of if it's AI or not? Companies used to hire HTML email developers, for example. There are many HTML email builders out there that do the job for a marketing person.
Better tooling, if it's AI tooling or a framework, continuously changes the job requirements. Even your average React developer still has to deal with plenty of other things people in the past didn't have to think about. E.g. dependency management, responsive screen sizes for all screen widths, native apps, state management, etc.

There are many people who are gainfully employed as software developers, based solely on technical knowledge they acquired years ago.
- senordevnyc 2y agoIronically though, if you do need to build raw HTML emails in 2025, it's still a huge PITA due to the horrible support for HTML / CSS across many email clients, and a dearth of good resources and information out there.
