LLMs are going to replace some developers, the companies that do that will fold because their product doesn’t work, the developers will get jobs elsewhere.
Comment on We went from LEARN TO CODE to NO ONE LEARN TO CODE GET A CONSTRUCTION JOB in about a 3 year span.

As a software engineer who uses AI agents daily, let me tell you: now is as good a time as any to learn to code. LLMs won’t replace any developers.

“any developers?” bad choice of words. I can promise you with absolute certainty that SOME developers WILL be made redundant because of AI.
not all, not lots, not the majority, but some

As a graduate from good university in computer science who is struggling to find a job. Go learn something that can be aided by code, but don’t make code the center of your career…

Well the job market for developers is still pretty tight at the moment. I don’t have the insight to say for sure why, but I know that for me and every junior developer I know it’s rough out there.

As a junior dev with prior working experience, currently not working as a programmer, yeah. I can only agree.
We might understand AI won’t actually solve the same problems we are able to solve, but the people deciding budgets dont understand that.

They don’t understand a lot. For whatever reason, higher management still thinks things are like a factory, and you just build your software like building a car.
Why? Because that’s the only way they know in the world of MBAs. They can’t speak any other language than “product.”

In the USA, there’s a tax break for research teams expiring this year. In the USA, I suspect this is the real motive.
