At the same time AI-transitioning companies are not those under whom the control is being centralized, all those managers don't seem to understand this. If demand for developers and their negotiating position against employers is eroding due to this technology, then so is that of those employers against their customers.

Meaning, of course, that there will be changes in demand for tech workers in the world even after the bubble burst. I'm mentally prepared to try myself in trades. Woodworking is nice. All the dangers of losing your fingers or getting git in the head with something heavy, accompanying construction jobs, are sad, while construction is cool.
