What I have learned while coding with AI, is that it can do certain tasks really well, while it really struggles with others. If you consider the complexity and ubiquity (ranging from proprietary/rare to open source/common knowledge) the complex & specific tasks are difficult for AI, while it shines in the opposite simple & common tasks.
I work in high tech and AI actually helped me to let me focus on the core business logic. Maybe instead of switching careers, find a company/team that works on innovative and unique projects?
