I think in this future they don't think a software engineer is making that much, maybe a nice 50k a year, 65K after 10+ years on the job

Still doesn’t make sense if you believe that AI is making a meaningful boost to productivity.
If you are the kind of person who thinks AI will drive down the wages of software engineers that much, you have to think that it is at least a 2x multiplier.
$65k salary all in for a company is easily $100k. So spending anything less than $100k would be what you would aim for.
I honestly don't know how 100k is not effectively the new 40k from late 90s atm in US. 50K is barely enough to do anything.
I mean median household income in 1999 was $40k and median household income now is $84k.
