Question is - why hire these days at all? Productivity of coders have skyrocketed, just keep best of those you already have, fire the worst, and milk the best for as long as you need them because they all know the current job is probably the last one ever so they will never ask for a raise. Everyone in this profession is either already forced out (bad ones), or is looking for a way out before they are forced to (but few will find it).
Everyone who touches code now has to ask themselves a question: "what to do when it ends?"

I still don't think that AI is that advanced.
It’s definitely not, but I think OP is probably reflecting on the state of the job market.
