This is such a ridiculous take I hear all the time. The shitty ethics of some people do not represent the ethics of an entire profession. Most programmers are not automating people out of jobs. I've been professionally employed as a software developer for 20 years and I don't think a single thing I've ever written has ever replaced anyone's job. Hopefully sometimes it improves their job.
