I think at the point SWE and DS are solved problems, most other white collar jobs are too, then you’ll have huge numbers of applicants for the remaining white collar jobs and blue collar jobs which will drive down the marginal value of those skills. Realistically if you like SWE and are seemingly pretty good at it, keep applying and get a job until the music stops








I mean I don’t think they are solved now. In my job AI still needs me for certain aspects, you could probably replace me with someone less skilled potentially but company’s usually pay a premium for reliability etc. Maybe in five years time this isn’t the case I don’t know, but company’s (at least in Europe) will be slow to adapt and I think its quite likely employee protections will be pretty heavily enforced to try and stop all the white collar job money being sent to American tech companies but that’s just my two cents
