THE POST-DEVELOPER ERA

Summary from the TLDR newsletter

The job market is currently having a tough time, but this isn't because companies are actually replacing developers with autonomous AI agents. There are macroeconomic factors, layoffs, and other things leaving tons of highly qualified devs out there looking for work. Some companies are operating under the myth that AI will make developers obsolete soon so they're not hiring as aggressively as they otherwise would. However, despite AI evangelists claiming that, any day now, companies won't need human developers to build their products, human developers are still needed.
