I think "The Bitter Lesson" is relevant here [1].

This wave IS different.

It isn't a matter of "if" but "when".

I am a long-time software developer too... but I am strongly encouraging people to embrace the future now and get creative in finding ways to adapt.

There will always be demand for smart and creative people. BUT ... if you don't look up and look around you right now at some point you will be irrelevant.

Also see Ray Dalio's "Principles" book on embracing reality. A critical principle in the modern age of AI.

Nothing but love for my fellow developers!!
