AI obsolescence is “coming for basically everyone in due time,” says one engineer who went from earning $150k to being locked out of the workforce for over a year.
Earlier this year, the CEO of Anthropic Dario Amodei predicted that more software jobs will soon go by the wayside.

More than that, “software engineer” has been drifting towards “software technician” for a while now. If you don’t have any additional physics, math or engineering specialty on top of software skills, things are pretty crowded. Anyone can learn to write decent software. It’s really never been a traditional academic topic for the most part, and AI is definitely making that worse.
