Will AI Cut Into Tech Jobs

From where I’m sitting: not really. It will eat the boring bits. If your whole job is repetitive, yes—that’s at risk. But if your work mixes problem-solving, context, talking to stakeholders, and making judgment calls, AI is more like a free teammate—peer reviewer, bug finder, and a second set of eyes that never gets tired. I think about it like this: back in the day we used bullock carts to move things. Then trucks arrived. We didn’t stop moving things—we just moved them faster and further. Business adapted. People learned to drive, fix, load, plan routes, and run bigger operations. Tools changed; the mission didn’t. Same story now. AI is just the next truck. Day to day, that means I’m still doing the human stuff: picking the right trade-offs, talking to users, choosing architecture, keeping things secure, and shipping. I’m just using AI to slice through the repetitive chores—writing boilerplate, hunting small bugs, scanning logs, summarising docs. Less grunt work, more value. Will some roles shrink? Yes—the ones built entirely on routine. But for most of us, the job morphs rather than disappears. We’ll spend more time directing and verifying, and less time grinding. That’s a good trade. -Comment your thoughts - Share what you’d learn next in your role - Tell us if you’re affected (or expect to be) and how you’re adapting
