Let's be real. If you're running a business in 2025, you’ve probably had a moment (maybe even a late-night worry session) about automation and artificial intelligence. Will AI take over marketing? Sales? Customer service? And yes, the big one for many of you with an online presence: will robots eventually just build our websites, making those web development costs a thing of the past?
It’s a valid question! The tech world moves at warp speed, and it feels like every other day there’s a new AI tool promising to revolutionize everything. So, let’s dive into this head-on: will web development as we know it kick the bucket in the next decade?
The "Web Development is Dead" Chatter: What's the Buzz About?
You’ve probably seen the articles, maybe even played around with some of the platforms yourself. Website builders like Wix, Squarespace, and others have made it incredibly easy for individuals and small businesses to get a basic website up and running in a few hours, sometimes even with drag-and-drop simplicity.
Then comes the AI wave. We’re seeing tools that can generate website copy, suggest layouts, and even write code based on simple prompts. It’s natural to think, "If an AI can do that, why would I need to hire a whole team of developers?"
This "web development is dying" narrative often stems from the increasing accessibility of these tools. The barrier to entry for creating a basic online presence has significantly lowered, and that’s a good thing in many ways. But does ease of use equate to the death of a profession? Let’s dig deeper.
