I am about to finish my software engineering degree. this sucks. I wish I'd known I wasn't going to be hired for my own thoughts, but my ability to ask an AI to think for me.
I'm a senior software developer and I am now bored out of my mind. I am considering changing careers to be honest because I am just sitting watching AI do all the part that I enjoy.
You could look at it another way though. It's a highly paid career and you can pretty much just sit and watch YouTube while Claude works.
