To add to that, AI can probably handle what most junior developers do—which is kind of sad because it raises the question: how will they get hired and eventually become senior devs?

But currently, AI can't replace a professional's job. And I keep stressing right now because I never said it won’t happen in the future. I’m not here to reassure anyone that they won’t lose their jobs down the line or anything like that.

Things are evolving rapidly and I´m pretty unsure where this will end up. Finally, all predictions are not worth much. Either things happen - or they don't. Or they develop in a completely unexpected direction.

Maybe AI can´t replace a professional's job. But even now it can do things humans can´t. I was just amazed that - over half a year or so - AI solutions have grown so much better. Maybe in one year or in ten AI can replace a professionals job - or make it much more creative, as it frees people from doing the stupid things.

The only thing we can say for sure: AI will change many job profiles. For good or for bad? Up til now this is a human decision...
