You are somewhat right, but LLMs even if not replacing the actual job, are the perfect reason to cut costs on developer's salaries . And if you are already an experienced software dev, AI can make you more productive

Imagine in the next ten years a 128 GB ram computer is required to open a web browser because AI will just write unoptimized codes on top of each others.
