LLMs aren't gonna replace anyone's jobs anytime soon. Their true power is making people even more productive.

I keep getting told that AI is gonna replace devs. While copilot at work is fucking awesome to use, it's also created the scenario where AI doesn't have to compete with devs anymore, it has to compete with devs who can use an AI to automate the easy stuff and do even more impactful work. You can apply this to basically all jobs. So until the LLMs can outperform a human + AI we're gonna be fine.

Not to mention until an AI can coax out what the fuck anyone even wants us to build in the first place I think we're safe.
