alt Hacker Newslol you’re a developer so I can see why you’re desperately making this argument and hope it lasts.
I’m a CEO and I don’t see this at all. There will be more consolidation for whom the economics are viable to pay good wage rates. The rest? Nah.
The crap ones will be out of a job. The best ones will fight fiercely amongst each other to keep their jobs and existing wage rates. Let alone increase.

Your company might fail then. Because I won’t be fighting to work at your company, I’ll just compete with your company and get paid what I deserve.
We already have CEOs is vendors trying to scare people away from vibe coding their contract away, while I diligently vibe code their contract away.
Not much new here as my entire career has been coding away 3rd party contracts, and it’s now easier than ever.
I’m not desperate at all. It was my company who was desperate to keep me and gave me a huge pay rise. I was already making top tier money.
I threatened to leave to start my own company unless they gave me enough money to make me not want to do it. They did.
