For most software, yeah, it’s not going to be a job anymore. Case in point: I rented a car the other day from a popular p2p app and the host had built his own app that was on Vercel for checking in/out the car, locating it on a map, it even had a lock/unlock button in case you locked the keys in. All on a little Vercel URL. The app was hideous, it looked exactly like an AI app with emoji everywhere and a basic layout. But it worked fine for the use case. That guy would have hired an agency or app dev in the past, now he’s able to do it himself, and he seems very proud of his work. As someone who did Node/React most of my career I was just like damn, it’s over. The digital photography and instagrammification of software dev. As you said though, opportunities open up elsewhere. Unfortunately for a lot of software, it’s just not that hard to build. I imagine a future where a kid in a polo shirt at Office Depot can whip up an app and get it deployed within 1 hour. Or maybe an AI kid in a polo shirt on a touch screen ordering machine. Because that’s the other thing - they always make it REAL tacky after the skill is solved and anyone can offer it Think Jiffy Lube, Staples - WalMart Tech Services!
