I guess I'm an outlier then because I actually like programming, and I've never wanted to be a manager, even a manager of an LLM. At least half the fun of making software is doing the programming

You aren't an outlier. Most of us got into coding because we enjoyed coding, not writing documentation that talks about coding.
I enjoyed coding because of what it enabled me to _do_.
I can now do more with AI tooling so I enjoy that more.
I know lots of you enjoy coding for its own sake, more power to you. But it's no surprise to me that many (most?) view it as a means to an end.
It feels like I am these days, with the amount of posts on here about how LLM-powered programming is the future and everyone should be doing it and it will make us all 10x developers
