I forget the economics term for this but doesn't an improvement in tools result in little net change because everyone across the industry is given effectively the same leg up? Doesn't this mean that things will mostly stay the same employment wise? Most people aren't 10x engineers even with agents. Certain things are true: most products need someone on call 24/7, a group of people who know how to support a product (with varying degrees of knowledge), someone who plans what to build, someone who builds it (usually different people), inefficiencies in communication, etc. at least at the company I work for, agents have all largely improved these things, but by no means eliminated them. So it seems like things will largely be the same. There are only so many incredible engineers out there. They'll become more and more valuable but they were valuable pre ai. It's not like the industry will consolidate to only amazing engineers.

it will probably be overdone very soon, but it's way better design than most of what's out there.

The Spotify hate is so forced. Everyone's complaints boil down to "the UX doesn't work exactly like I want". I find these changes mildly annoying like anyone else, but Spotify is miles ahead of everyone else in terms of discovery and it's not even close. It's not perfect but no service is.

If GDP was not increasing, every business transaction is a zero sum game. No one wants to live in that world.
