"When software development becomes more efficient, the ROI of any given software project increases, which unlocks more projects." - this is just wrong. It assumes every company hiring software developers has infinite scope. In reality most companies hire programmers to create something and then scale down and maintain it. (Obviously, there are companies with nearly unlimited scope, but those are usually huge companies).
When some AI can perform the work at 100X the rate of an average developer, you will run out of requirements pretty quickly. You will need 1/100th of developers to oversee the process.
