I haven't thought hard about it yet, but perhaps I should be a bit worried. My other "superpower" is digging into documentation and figuring out how to actually use stuff I've never seen before. Another thing that might be under threat from AIs soon. I've certainly used AIs for my own hobby projects in this regard, sometimes with good result, so it's surely a matter of time. Though at least at my current job, my most valuable skill is being able to understand the customer's needs, and being able to come up with solutions that solve their problems well without breaking the bank. Part of that is finding out how to best utilize existing code, which means I like to work on varied parts of the code base. Part of it is probing the customers to understand how they operate, which limitations they have and so on. I think part of that is thanks to the same drive that lead me to all these obscure topics, which drives me to want to understand the existing code and the customers domain, which in turn puts me in a much better position to help and guide our customers to a good solution. Not sure if AI's will do that too soon, time will tell.
