people keep saying that assuming that in 5-10 years AI won’t be as good as senior engineers
What hubris on HN, to downvote this very reasonable comment.

A year ago I had no use for any LLM-driven tools, and today I can do my entire job without writing a single line of code.

If that happened in a year, what can we expect in 5? I have no idea what my job might even look like by then.

What makes you think that? AI isn't as good as any human in any field. Why would it be capable of replacing anyone at all in 10 years?

Not even chess-playing? More applicable to jobs though, they're arguably better than some juniors.

5 years ago AI was a joke, today it is a major industry tool.
What are you talking about? AI is currently better at the things it can do than the average random person on the streets.
