No. Don't want my kid to become a software coolie like us. With AI and scrum masters and micro managers, it is quickly becoming more of a replaceable blue collar job.
IMO it was always just a "skilled labor" job, but somehow the demand put us in white collars. Heck, nobody brought up that software engineers aren't held to the same standards as any other engineer.
Playing the devil's advocate here...won't we need coders to build the AI, or the AI builders to understand code even if they're not writing it?
(Genuine question) What's a job that doesn't have things like scrum masters and micro managers and is still good?
