Argument doesn’t check out. You can still manage people, and they can use whatever tools make them productive. Good understanding of the code & ability to pass PR reviews isn’t going anywhere, nor is programmer skill
Not unless the claims that companies are hiring less junior devs in favour of LLMs with senior coder oversight. If this is indeed a true trend and AGI is not achieved, we might have senior coder shortage in future.
I think this is true to some degree, but not exclusively true; new grads still get jobs. However, I think it’ll take some time for universities to catch up with the changes they need to make to refocus on architecture, systems design & skilled use of LLMs
My opinion is that the demand for software is still dramatically higher than what can be achieved by hiring every single senior dev + LLM. I.e. there will need to be more people doing it in the future regardless of efficiency gains
