It is certain that over the next 10 years, AI is going to do more than 50% of the tasks we are currently doing everyday as a front or backend devs. This will in turn reduce the need of devs too. But, this can't necessarily be a downside. AI has open up a big window of possibilities, not just for large companies but also for devs like us. I can literally think of 10 small AI products I could build quick after learnig some ML, exploring the vast amount of OSS repos and levaraging openai (potentially). You spent time as a chef and now are a web dev. I don't think that would have been as easy as it sounds like. Similar way, adapting to AI wouldn't too tricky too.

All of us have been implementing things through manual logic so far. For example, If I need to find patterns in some given data, I'd write some regex, extend it over time to cover more possible inputs and it would just work with the frequent updates to code. Think it in AI way. I'd build a model, train it with sample inputs and outputs and over time it'd be able to learn the patterns by itself without having the modify or extend the code. Sounds fascinating to me. People want things like these, that don't require a dedicated dev to maintain themselves, that run on itself, just like a business that runs on autopilot.

Try to stay strong and think how can you make something easier for someone else and build it. You don't necessarily have to work for someone else to be able to make a living. And even if you have to, don't think AI is not for you. Apply it (theoretically) on what you're doing, maybe you can find some ways to do something lot easier than what that is. Hope it helps.
