I’ve worked with humans, who have computer science degrees and 20 years of experience, and some of them have trouble writing good code and debugging issues, communicating properly, integrating with other teams / components.

I don’t see “AI” doing this. At least not these LLM models everyone is calling AI today.

Once we get to Data from Star Trek levels, then I can see it. But this is not that. This is not even close to that.

People are always enthusiastic about automating others' jobs. Just like they are about having opinions on areas of knowledge utterly alien to them.

Say, how most see the work of medics.

And the fact that a few times in known history revolutions happened makes them confident that another one is just behind the corner, and of course it'll affect others and not them.
