Will Artificial Intelligence(AI) Replace Software Jobs?

Hi Dev Community đź‘‹

I wanted to share a real story that’s been on my mind lately, and I’d love to hear your thoughts and suggestions.
A close friend of mine, an experienced developer working at a reputed MNC, recently found himself in a difficult situation:

  • The company started implementing advanced AI tools to automate parts of the development process.
  • My friend was told that his role would be significantly reduced because of AI automation.
  • He had two options:
  1. Accept a lower salary to continue working in a reduced capacity.
  2. Resign and look for new opportunities elsewhere.

This really shook me. It raises a question that we, as developers, can't ignore:
Will AI eventually replace software jobs entirely, leaving us with no choice but to adapt or step aside?
