There's no doubt that recent advances in AI have changed and will continue to change how folks in the software industry work. Some are even arguing that software engineers' days are numbered. I'm curious how others are perceiving and responding to these changes.
Are you considering retraining for a role that cannot be done by AI? Are you developing your own AI tools in an effort to capitalise on the AI boom? Are you embracing the new tools, but riding out the AI wave confident that your current role will still exist in the future? Are you moving into an AI-adjacent field intent on "selling shovels in a gold rush"? What's your plan?
