Most big tech engineers I know hate coding and see abandoning coding as a progression in their career. Personally, I don't care what the industry thinks, I like coding and do it anyway with or without a huge corporation providing me with every last resource required. If I'm unemployed because coding as a skill is no longer needed, I will still do it just not part of my day job. Just as painters were worried about color printers, the value of the Mona Lisa was put into question. I'm no artist, but I'm not believing the overhyped scenario's. I love language models and their abilities but there's too many HR reps drooling at the mouth thinking they can replace coders with AI.
