Ask HN: Do you think some devs are in denial regarding coming AI changes?
&gt;Anyone who agrees with any of the 3 sentiments, what is the justification backing up your belief? Do you feel the general cynicism&#x2F;dismissiveness is justifiable?<p>&gt;While most junior level dev work is easily automatable, mid-senior level dev work cannot be replaced and in 5 years time will be no sooner able to be replaced<p>Because companies were not set up with the idea of being able to contextualize and feed all their internal information into an AI.  Maybe going forward, this will change... _maybe_ in 10-20 years (rather arbitrary I guess) one or two &quot;managers&quot; could use AI to interface with customers but for the foreseeable future, I just don&#x27;t see how it could work.<p>Assume you had an LLM that would never hallucinate or give a &quot;wrong&quot; answer.  Someone still has to hook that up and constantly feed it context or its rather useless.
