Is there anything left for me?

As a student in college looking for a way to break into Front-end Web Development, the rise of things such as AI being used to replace juniors has really unnerved me. Is there any place for my skills(HTML, CSS, JavaScript, ReactJS) outside of Front-end?

AI isnt going to replace you or anyone. AI is still incredibly bad at writing real code(and doing most things really) and will never get anywhere close enough to replace humans. Its simply the newest shiniest thing that tech companies are latching on to as with crypto and web3 before it. The new shiny thing will come along and we will all forget AI was even a thing in like 10 years.

Thank you, but even with that, it seems like there is little to no place for juniors in the current landscape. What could I do about that?
