"Jobs are going to be lost unless there's somehow a demand for more applications."
That's why I'm not worried. There is already SO MUCH more demand for code than we're able to keep up with. Show me a company that doesn't have a backlog a mile long where most of the internal conversations are about how to prioritize what to build next.
I think LLM assistance makes programmers significantly more productive, which makes us MORE valuable because we can deliver more business value in the same amount of time.
Companies that would never have considered building custom software because they'd need a team of 6 working for 12 months may now hire developers if they only need 2 working for 3 months to get something useful.
