Oh boy I can’t wait until we get rid of the highest paying jobs!

Your response doesn’t explain why so many people are hyped about it, just why CEOs are.

White collar jobs as a white - yes, but even in software companies it is not uncommon when sales and marketing cost more than engineering.

I don’t think software developer is a white collar job. It’s essentially manufacturing. There are some white collar workers at the extremes but the overwhelming majority of programmers are doing the IT equivalent of building pickup trucks.
