@andrewaggb I fully agree with you except on the obsolescence of programming languages as a whole, sure the simplest one like, html, CSS could disappear, but I don't think AI can realistically make most programming languages obsolete. Imagine you have a car, and a special garage, this garage is special because when you put your car it repairs it, upgrade it etc. But what happen when the garage doesn't repair it properly ? or not the way you want ? if you know nothing about mechanic you are screwed. So while I can clearly see AI doing the same thing motorized vehicle did to farming, we will always need engineers to go look under the hood, when things go south.

@sleepnaught I'm not as experienced as the people commenting above, but I can safely say that there will still be jobs within the next 10 years, even if AI progress are amazing, it still takes time to transition. Just like when tractors were invented, it wasn't a sudden transition, little by little, small farms were buy out and merged together, jobs were replaced by machine but it took time. Even tho i expect it to go faster, that transition will still take time. lastly you wont magically become useless, the skills you are acquiring will still be valuable, and usable within another industry if needed

@maharta8458 No, I don't look down on Front-End dev, it's just as hard if not harder at time because of product managers and what not, it's just that AI is already able to generate complex website, based on simple sketch. From this observation, it seems logical to make the assumption that the front-end will probably be the first to be replaced, simply because smaller organization, that want a homemade website may not need to contract, or hire those types of engineer, if the IT guy with low knowledge can make the front-end using those AI. Whereas if you work on more abstract and low level issue, it might take a bit more time for the AI to take your job and even then since it's lower level, you still probably need a few engineer to make sure it's not buggy.

@maharta8458 On top of that it would make sense that those type of jobs will be the first that the AI will try to replace, if you can control the front-end market, you can get a share of the ad revenue, get massive amount of data to refine your AI even more and create AI products that use the data collected, to create plug and play plugins to enhance your user experience, and then they'll probably go after the micro-services again, then the back-end etc. But if your work is in embedded software, AI, research, algorithm, etc. your less likely to get replace quickly just because those tends to be more "complex" and also because there is less money to make for the AI service provider through data collection.

@therealb888 you raised some very good point, and I do agree, low level jobs will eventually be mostly replaced but I think it's safe to say that it will take more time than jobs that are less important in terms of safety for us and easier for the AI (web dev, game dev, etc.) , but yeah you would definitely not let an AI craft the C code for your nuclear reactor.

@therealb888 Make sense, not to spit on my generation, but back in the days most of the software engineer, were absolute Chad, who learned to code on computers with less kilobyte of memory than my toaster. Those type of engineer learned the hard way how to code in C, and unfortunately when you learn C at Uni or on Udemy it's hard to get the same level of mastery as those old timer. With rust being so safe it's understandable that there is a shift occurring in the language used.
