Exactly. If the AI can multiply everyone's power by hundred or thousand, you want to keep all people who make a positive contribution (and only get rid of those who are actively harmful). With sufficiently good AI, perhaps the group of juniors you just fired could have created a new product in a week.

even within the AI-paradigm, you could keep the juniors to validate and test the AI generated code. You still need some level of acceptance testing for the increased production. And the juniors could be producing automation engineering at or above the level of the product code they were producing prior to AI. A win win ( more production & more career growth)

In other words, none of these stories make any sense, even if you take the AI superpower at face value.
