Ask HN: What are you doing to prepare for the AI takeover of SE?

Even as an AI skeptic, I have to admit that there is the real possibility that AI tools significantly reduce the need for software engineers going forward. I find it hard to believe they will be removed from all industries in the near future (I figure highly regulated industries, defense, etc.. will probably take many years to adopt these tools) and while I am still skeptical, I wouldn't want to be caught unprepared. I have about ten years left in this industry before I would consider I no longer need to work - and while I live pretty frugally, being without any real income for a long period of time would be a massive life event for me.

What are you doing to prepare for this potential future, if anything?

How do you plan on making yourself more valuable or indispensable to your company or industry?

Are you planning on a career pivot?

How are you dealing with the anxiety of this upcoming possibility?
