Both TFA and the article it links to go too far in either direction.
The author of this is a web developer so has a lot more to lose. Yes there will always be people who pay for a human made creative website, but that market has decreased for the foreseeable future. I can't blame them for being hostile and tired, I would be too.
Simply acknowledging criticism of AI then saying "anyway" isn't really an argument either. "So do knives" is bullshit, nobody with knives wants to eliminate interns and create 20% unemployment like Amodei claims.
One thing this makes me realise is that an AI generated web largely stops growing. We've all joked about webdevs perpetually porting to JavaScript framework-of-the-week. If most websites are generated from a set of historical training data and we force web devs to diversify away, then there will be few people left to make a "web 4.0" or whatever version you consider is after the modern web.
Hopefully you like hamburger menus, looks like they're here to stay.
