Check back in 12 months to see if this prediction came true.

I hate to say this, but many of your assertions are incorrect.
Yes, AI requires someone to run it and especially for software development, a talented designer is ideal. But the 6 people that designer led are now no longer needed.
Most people are using the free versions of most AI tools. They do not understand how far ahead the paid versions are. I work for a multi-billion dollar enterprise software company. This year we will lay off 30% of our development staff because they're no longer needed because of Cursor and Claude.
Next year another 30% will be let go.
Yes, AI output requires some supervision but AI hallucinations have been dramatically reduced across most platforms.
People do not realize how fast these tools are improving. Whether this guy's prediction is correct or not, I don't know. There are other complexities than just AI's ability to replace people in the workplace.
But things are changing very rapidly, far more rapidly than most people realize.
They're laying off those people to save money and blaming AI. AI hallucinations haven't been reduced. They are part of how the underlying tensor systems work. You will always need supervision. And yes we use the enterprise versions of everything where I'm at. You are obviously not a developer.
Without a doubt, anything repetitive can be reduced by automation. But most companies have to continue to create and make new things that are different from before. So they will always have to supervise to make sure it's all been done correctly. AI can make a developer faster, but it is a huge mistake to think you can magically get by with fewer people and compete with other companies that have more people using the same tools.
The company with the most talented developers will win in that particular field.
I hope my company's competitors would get rid of their soldiers. We would own the industry.
Lots of short sited companies that don't understand how war works and how they've made themselves much less competitive.
"You are obviously not a developer."
I think that will about end my engagement with you.
I honestly didn't mean to insult you, but I don't know one developer that disagrees that AI needs a person to oversee everything you have it do or any programmer who disagrees with anything I just typed. I thought you were middle management. If you are not 100% on top of every character and line that AI writes for you, then you are going to let something through that's gonna be bad.
AI slop is everywhere and it's coming from mid level programmers who think that AI is allowing them to do bigger and better things, but it's gonna end in tears and already has in some public domain code bases.
Maybe your Indian. They love this shit.
My God what an utter, ignorant ass you are.
