"sure CRUD might not have been that difficult, but absolutely there is extremely complicated software out there that is really difficult to write in a performant and correct manner."

I was a developer for 20 years, before I pivoted to cybersecurity. My hobby projects were always more complex than the software I wrote at my day job.

The majority of software developers are writing some type of CRUD code or glue code for business processes. A small minority are writing complex code at big tech companies.

AI will most likely replace the need for many software developers.
