I can only assume so many people are repeating this as "cope".
Ask yourself honestly, is this genie ever going back in the bottle? If not, you’re gonna have to find a way to come to terms with it my dude.

I think you misunderstand the GP: The developers writing this, or similar things, are seemingly unable to understand that they'll be un/under-employed along with everyone who is anti-AI, and this is their coping mechanism.
After all, if you don't need coding knowledge to produce an application, and only need domain knowledge, you are now competing with 10x more people for the same job.
Maybe it is a good thing, but I don't think that that fact, regardless of veracity, is relevant to the coping argument, though.
All the developers prattling on about how they are moving to a higher level of abstraction, or how they are moving to the more difficult parts of the process are ignoring that those parts traditionally paid less and that they are now competing with a larger pool of people who can provide that skill.
The difficulty of course will be recent graduates. I genuinely feel for the difficulty they’ll have.
