Untrue for the majority of engineers, and almost all with less than a decade experience.
The AIs will only get better from here too.

Ai does NOT do better than a reasonable person. It gets about 80% of the way most of the time. And totally wrong and broken sometimes.
It just writes 10x faster. Once testing, bug fixing, testing again, and manually fixing the occasional huge fuck up im about 5x faster than I was. Things would be even better if I was a better programmer to begin with.
I agree, but you're talking about something you're clearly very competent in. That doesn't mean AI isn't as good as a relatively junior engineer.
It also says nothing about AIs of the future. 2 years ago AI could hardly do any tasks without a huge amount of human assistance. Now most SWE will tell you they don't even write code anymore. Let's give it another 2 years.
