There is no shortage of articles on the HN front page, stating that being "just a code monkey" is likely going to have much less employment options soon-ish.

A likely correct but also at this point rather stale observation.

The people making that observation are somehow blind to the fact that what they are doing now is ever more likely to be taken over by AI too.

Don't disagree, was trying to get at moreso the transition to more empirically inclined development. Ie - way more emphasis on how code behaves rather than the code itself
