One of the better analysis of this question I think.
On the optimistic take side - I suspect it might end up being true that software might be infused into more niches but not sure it follows that this helps on the jobs market side. Or put different demand for software and SWE might decouple somewhat for much of that additional software demand.
- slfnflctd 10mo agoI'm mostly convinced at this point that the jobs market will only be affected temporarily. This is really just another form of automation, speeding things up. We can now make more customized software more quickly and cheaply. The market is already realizing that fact, and demand for more performant, bespoke software at lower costs/prices is increasing. Those who are good at understanding the primary areas of concern in software design generally, and who can communicate well, will continue to be very much in demand.
- Havoc 10mo agoI‘m leaning more towards significant job impact. It’s hard to tell though not just because it’s inherently uncertain where this goes but also because those closest to it are also the least likely to view it objectively. So near impossible to find someone clued up but also not invested in a specific outcome
