I’ve read in several places that 25% of openings for software engineering jobs have gone away thanks to AI. I’m sure top level design and requirements definition jobs will still be around, but it is going to be hard for someone like the OP to get a foot in the door learning from scratch.
No AI could have done the design job I did on my last software project, but it could have done the jobs of my helpers.
Now software testing might be a good thing to get into, since I wouldn’t trust a fully AI generated piece of code as far as I could throw it, not if it was reasonably complex.
