I hang around a few developer-centric communities, and my gut feeling is that HN is by far the most pro-AI. It's somewhat rare to find people all-in on "developers just got replaced by AI, pick a different career field guys" anywhere but here. Maybe there are just more developer-adjacent types on HN.

I do find it somewhat amusing to read the commentary here and ponder why some of these people are wildly enthusiastic about making software development a dead field but simultaneously don't think it's also going to put them out of work. Programmers may be a lucrative target, but LLMs are "good enough" at many other knowledge disciplines too.
