It's mostly hype and a lot of failed businesses (those keen on letting developers go) are going to be realised sooner than later.

AI is a toolset in a developer's toolbox. LLMs are one of those tools. In that way, they are no more or less than a compiler, debugger, or IDE. Should we shun those things and go back to punchcards?

People need carpenters to build a wooden chair from scratch with quality craftsmanship; they'll still need software developers in the future to ensure software is built with the same concept of quality craftsmanship.

The other thing to bear in mind: no one wants or needs yet another Photoshop, there's plenty of alternatives. The idea that "anyone can make their own" is not only false, but would also be a productivity failure for a company to engage in, not a productivity boost. They should have focused on their business, not reinventing someone else's (unless they're genuinely going to compete.)

Then there's the liability issue. Say a company relies on Excel, but they decide to vibe their own - now if it gets math wrong, who is liable? The Post Office Horizon scandal in the UK is a pre-AI example of this kind of ownership of responsibility meets liability issue.
