I think the prevailing mindset amongst developers who use LLMs is that actually LLMs are more of an effective augmentation of programming tools in the same way that an IDE is, and the marketing angle comes from perceived demand for that augmented skill set.

Many developers even seem to predict an increase in demand in the medium to long term as AI written systems increasingly begin to need human attention.

I think the hyper enthusiastic ones are more vocal, but there's a quieter and larger group who are somewhat more measured about it.
